The storm of Wednesday evening completely destroyed our marquee, much of which landed on a neighbouring tennis court. The Club does have insurance for this storm damage and clean-up, including replacement of the marquee. We are working with our insurers to clear the damage rapidly, erect a temporary tent, and replace it with a new tent later in the summer. We do expect to have one or two synthetic courts out of action while debris is removed and damage assessed.  Thanks for your understanding.
The Management Committee

The sending out and processing of annual subscriptions put a heavy burden on the Club’s limited (and mainly volunteer) administrative resources. Changes in Membership status or categories, when they occur after the initial fee request has been sent out, lead to “double work”. This happened last year for almost 40% of our fee requests.

To help us improve efficiency, we would like to change the process this year and capture as many changes as possible ahead of issuing fee requests.  Please let us know by June 30th of any changes in membership category that you wish to make for you or any member of your family; e.g., changes between Social and Full.  Please email your changes to .

Please note that category changes that are simply due to age are handled directly by the system and no request needs to be made in this case.

Many thanks in advance for your help with this.

The next (and last before the summer holidays) Little Musicians/Petits Musiciens session will be on Sunday, 29 June, from 11 am to 12:30 pm, with Breakfast from 11 am to 2 pm.
Aigerim (music teacher) will be with her theatre teacher for a Music & Theatre Master Class. Book using this Hello Asso link. Don't forget that if a child is signed up for Breakfast/Brunch together with a parent, they have free access to the 1.5-hour class. If you don’t want to sign up for breakfast/brunch, it is €25 per child for the class. It is easier and cheaper if you reserve your place before Friday evening. Prices are more expensive at the bar on the day, and you risk the class being full.

The Tennis Mix-In this Sunday.will start as usual at 2:30 pm.
Just register by court #1 at 2:15 for a 2:30 pm start (first come, first served). We'll assign partners so everyone gets a good game during the afternoon as well as a chance to meet other tennis players with some friendly women's, men's and/or mixed doubles.
