****CLUB NEWS****
2025 Season
​
Defib
A recent event at Port Sunlight needed the defibrillator to be used. Knowing this, one of the Committee has asked the main committee if a simple overview/training of the defibrillator could be given. We wait for a response on this but in the meantime make sure you know where on the tennis clubhouse noticeboard the code is for our defibrillator - so if you need it you go straight to it!! Same for the one in the main clubhouse - check it out! Don't be caught unawares!!!!!! Until any awareness session - don't be afraid to use it - instructions are with it!
​
!!!!!Emergency Contacts!!!!!
With the above in mind - the 2025 list is currently being populated, hopefully never used but just in case..... You just never know.. See the WhatsApp group for more information on this or contact the Secretary directly.
​
Noticeboard
Mike will be putting up a noticeboard in the tennis club house for tennis related activity/events. Please keep a watch for information. The noticeboard will be additional to this website.
2nd Team
A recent poll of members indicated an overwhelming interest in putting in a 2nd team into the Summer Season as it is now an open league offering more opportunity. The committee confirmed this at their meeting with a view to considering a 3rd team for the 2026 season. All this is great but now we need a Captain for that team from those who opted for a 2nd team. So please contact me if you are able and willing.
​
Captains
On the subject of Captains - some of our Captains have acted in the role for some time and would welcome a rest!!! They will help anyone putting their name forward. Please consider and let me know if you would be interested in taking on a role. Let's spread the love around!!!!!!
​
Padel Update
All surveys/reports complete and Council planning permission has now been sought. More updates as and when...
​
2025 AGM
At the recent AGM those officials currently in place were returned en bloc. A welcome addition to the committee is Louie Snell as Social Competition Guru!
​
