Love Tennis Volunteers Needed
Last year Mission Bay Tennis Club had its most successful Love Tennis event ever with over ~280 participants registered on the day. Mission Bay was also one of three Clubs in the Tennis New Zealand Love Tennis Club of the Year, and as the only Auckland Club in the three, the unofficial Tennis Auckland Love Tennis Club of the Year.
|
This year, Love Tennis is on Sunday 7th September from 10am - 2pm and we want to see it at Mission Bay back, bigger and better than ever.
|
We can't do this alone though, so we need your help! We need as many Members as possible to help on the day to achieve this.
|
Members are invited to Volunteer to help on the day, (it's just 4 hours!), and/or help with planning for the day.
|
If you are willing to do anything at all to help, please register your interest via the following form:

Constitution Reminder
A sub-committee has been working on a revised club constitution to ensure we meet the requirements of the new Incorporated Societies Act 2022.
|
The current constitution, like many older club documents, does not comply with the updated legislation, which all incorporated societies must adhere to by April 2026.
|
Once the draft has been reviewed by the Committee, it will be shared with all members well in advance of the AGM to allow time for feedback and discussion.
|
|
Our goal is to adopt the new constitution at this year’s AGM to keep the club compliant and up to date.
|
