General Information

Availability and Use of Courts
Please see the relevant pages of this booklet for allocation of court time. A
list of all home team matches, both adult and junior, will be displayed on
the notice boards in both pavilions. Occasionally it may prove necessary to
utilise periods that are shown as free for matches where they need to be
re-arranged. Conversely match allocated times may be used by members
when not required for matches.

Visitors
Visitors are welcome and may play as guests of existing members for a
maximum of THREE TIMES IN A YEAR, after which they must apply for
membership if they wish to continue using club facilities. THE VISITOR
FEE IS £2 PER SESSION FOR ADULTS AND £1 FOR JUNIORS. It is the
responsibility of the club member to complete the appropriate visitor’s book
held in each pavilion and to pass the visitor fee to a committee member.
Visitors are not covered by any insurance if their names are not entered
into the visitor’s book and if they are not playing with a Club member.

Court Lighting & Pavilion Heating
Court lighting is available for members to use operated by a switch system
in the electrical cabinet in the pavilion. Floodlights should not be used
unnecessarily but once switched off must not be put back on within 20
minutes. All floodlights must be switched off at 10.00pm. Please lock
the pavilion and ALL the gates to the courts on leaving.
Background heating in the pavilion is operated by a press button switch on
the right side of the electrical cabinet. This is a timed facility and will switch
off automatically after 30 minutes. Please do not alter the dials on the
heater unit and ensure that the pavilion door is kept closed.

Teams
Mens, ladies, mixed and junior teams are entered into local and county
leagues throughout the year. Team practice takes place in the spring at
Broadham. Selection is influenced by attendance at the team training
sessions. Availability and commitment to matches is expected. Anyone
interested in playing team tennis should contact the respective
captains.

organisers as to whether any spectators will be allowed this year.

British Tennis Membership
British Tennis Membership is an individual membership scheme for those
who play or have an interest in British Tennis and is free to all Club

           Club AGM          Wednesday 10th November 2021

             Further events will be arranged when we are allowed.

                      COURT BOOKING SYSTEM

   We have now launched a court booking system through ClubSpark. This
   can be accessed at https://clubspark.lta.org.uk/PainswickLawnTennisClub.
   All members will have received an invite to sign up to the system and book
   courts. If you’ve not received this please email
   membership@painswickltc.co.uk.

   The following will apply when you make a booking:
      • Bookings can be up to 90 minutes in length (you can make a
            shorter booking in 30 minute blocks)
      • You will be able to make 1 booking per day (you are welcome to
            play on unbooked courts at other times in the day)
      • Bookings can be made up to 6 days in advance.
      • Courts 1-5 at Broadham are available for booking. Coaches still
            have priority on court 6. The rec will not have a booking system in
            place.

   There is no requirement to book a court to play. However, you may need to
   give way to someone who has booked.
