Dear Members,

We are delighted to announce that the renovation of Court 3 has now been completed.

This has been a multi-step, 7-month process, led from start to finish by Raphaël Kahane, in coordination with the Tennis Committee.

• Assessment of multiple potential surfaces by Raphaël, Mikaël Jayet, Melvyn Cooke and Roland Tchertoff to ensure that the surface meets the needs of both competition and leisure players
• Negotiation with suppliers (Raphael, Roland, Emile Freiha) … to finally obtain a price 1/3 lower than the quotes that had been received in previous years
• Removal and disposal of the old surface by our staff and interns: Caroline, Patrick, Diego, Jack, Elise (and Gerald’s skip)
• Repair and painting of the surrounding walls prior to laying of the surface
• Laying of the new surface, completed yesterday.

We can now play on a state-of-the-art artificial surface (with a 10-year warranty). We look forward to receiving your feedback, so please grab your rackets and give it a try.

To maintain our new surface, please do not forget to drag the court after each game and, if the weather is very dry, to water the court (just like a regular clay court).

We would like to thank all involved in the planning and execution of this major project for our Club.

Enjoy!!

The Management Team (MC and Advisors): Rich, Raphael, Gerald, Emile, Georgina, Roxane, Gigi, Tarja, Victor, Serena, Elisabeth, Jean-Noel, Vincent, Roland, Didrik
The Tennis Committee: Mikael, Caroline, Cecilia, Philippe, Matt
