Anyone for cardio-tennis?
Cardio-tennis is a great way to get fit, have fun, socialise and hit some tennis balls. Contact Andrew McLeod (0416 083 472) if you are interested. See here for more information.
Upcoming tournaments
The courts will be used for a tournament over the June long weekend (Friday 9 June - Monday 12 June). Two courts will be available for the organised social competition on the Saturday afternoon. Otherwise, courts will be unavailable over this period.
The courts will also be used for a tournament on Sunday 25 June. Courts will be unavailable on this day.
Hone your tennis skills with our new ball machine!
The club recently purchased a new ball machine. A big thanks to the Springwood Sports Club for their generous contribution towards the cost of this item.
The new machine has a remote control and a large variety of settings including variations in ball speed, spin, angle and height. It's a great way to groove your shots. The ball machine costs $15/hour for members, or $30/hour for non-members, plus court hire.
Reduce waste - recycle old tennis balls
If you have old tennis balls that you no longer need, you can leave them in the Game-On Recycling box in the clubhouse.
Thanks to our sponsors
Finally, please support our sponsors. Their generous financial contributions help to keep our club thriving.
Happy hitting!
The Springwood Tennis Club Committee
