Monday/Tuesday Night Mixed Team Competition

The club currently runs night tennis competitions on Monday and Tuesday nights during school terms 1 and 4. 

Team members are allocated to a team based on ability and teams are as even as possible to ensure good tennis for all.

Normally, you play in the same team all season. Each evening you play two sets of doubles up to 9 (tie break at 8 all) with both of your team members. The night tennis is a casual competition with a reasonably good standard. Everyone is out there to enjoy it – it’s not serious but a fun, organised evening on our beautiful grass courts.

Fees are payable on the night and you pay just for the nights you play whether you are a full team member or a reserve.  The fees are:  Non-member $15, Member $5 and Student $6.

The upstairs bar is open after the second set, so you and any spectators can go up there for a drink and it’s a great place to watch the last of the tennis, especially on a warm evening.

If you are interested in joining a team or becoming a reserve (more reserves always needed!) please contact Simon Macklin 0419 543 820 or samnjo@mac.com for Monday night or Rosie Budenberg on 0422 138 885 or rosieandianb@gmail.com for Tuesday night.
