Court Maintenance
We are so thankful to Love Your Court for the recent servicing of Courts 1 through to Court 6. They've done a fantastic job!
|
Court Use through Winter Months
Please be aware that the wet weather does a great job of redistributing the sand.
|
A reminder to please use the sand groomer periodically to redistribute uneven sand, particularly if you're playing after rain. The sand groomer can normally be found hanging on the fence of Court bays 1-3.
|
Please also remember to cancel your Court bookings if it is raining and you don’t end up playing. The lights are linked to your bookings, so this will avoid any potential complaints from neighbours.
|
|
Thank you for your co-operation.
