We are happy to announce that you can book and play our magnificent clay tennis courts from Tuesday.

Courts 2 & 5 are playable at lunchtime and from 5 PM on Tuesday. Courts 1 and 4 will open on Wednesday. We hope to have Court 6 ready for play next week.

Please make the most of the excellent tennis weather in the days ahead.

But remember these important rules:
- Sweep and water the courts after you play.
- If the courts are very dry, water before and after you play.
- Wear tennis shoes for clay courts (no running shoes) to avoid damaging the surface.
- When the weather is wet, do not play on the courts even if you find the doors unlocked. If you do play on the courts when they are soaked, you risk damaging them by leaving deep footprints in the clay, which creates an uneven surface, leading to bad bounces and the risk of twisted ankles and knees.
- The courts are expensive to repair. Please treat them - and your fellow tennis players - with respect.
- And remember, white tennis attire, please.

We look forward to seeing you all on court soon!
