NPL Tennis Club Teddington

Don’t forget the handicap tournament on Sunday. No barbecue as previously advertised, but there could well be a sumptuous tea!

Wimbledon Draw & Membership Subs

It’s well into membership renewal time!

With the increasing membership, this year all adult members, and all junior members, will receive a blue shoe tag which will confirm that you’re a paid-up current member. When Liz has received your membership sub she’ll leave your tag in a box in the club house. Would you please attach the tag by threading it through the lace on one of your tennis shoes? New (differently coloured) tags will be issued each year.

To renew your membership send a cheque to Liz Savage.

The list for the Wimbledon draw is now up in the club house. If you’d like to participate, please indicate which dates you’d prefer. Please note that from this year LTA rules state that only LTA members are eligible to enter the ballot, so next to it Liz has put a list of our British Tennis members, adult and junior.
