We'd like to think that we're a sociable club and not being very big means that most people get to know each other after a while.

Probably the best way to see how sociable we are is by looking at the many tableaux of photographs in the clubhouse or online on this site. The word 'social' should not however be taken to mean uncompetitive, as there's a mean streak in most of us that surfaces when we least expect it. Competitive but sociable is probably a good combination.

Here's a brief summary of the social events that we run.....

Spring Chicken and Christmas Turkey tournaments - involving six teams with up to 7 pairs on each team, these play over a six week period on either Mon/Wed/Fri each week. last night either coincides with a presentation ceremony or the Christmas party, or boith. Teams are graded, husbands typically dont play with wives, and a great time is normally had by all.

Club Nights - We normally run these in late spring and they go on into the Summer holiday period. Monday nights, graded pairs, lots of fun with some snacks and a drink afterwards on our trusty deck (assuming the hoped-for heatwave arrives which it usually does)

Ad Hoc Social tennis - Various groups in the club run events of a competitive but social nature - eg Mens Class6+ play Mondays at 7pm sharp, Ladies Wednesday morning is a fixture at 10am, there are other ladies and mens events also which keep changing, so ask around, watch the noticeboards, and read the newsletter.
