Dear Tennis Member

I just wanted to give you an update on the aforementioned before the Christmas break.

Online Court Booking Procedure Update
The My Courts booking system has been updated so that as from the 1st January 2017 courts 1 to 10 will be available to book only in the evenings for the following 90' time slots:

Courts 1 & 2: 1700, 1830, 2000
Courts 3, 4 & 5: 1730, 1900, 2030
Courts 6*, 7, 8, 9 & 10: 1800, 1930, 2100  
*Court 6 to have 1700, 1830, 2000 time slots shortly so that it spreads the start times more evenly.

Lights have been set to come on now from 1500 using £1 coins in the slot machines and automatically go off at 2200.

Bookings will continue to be free and we are still looking at the most practical way of refunding all those with online credit.  The paper system is to be used for booking courts during the day. 

This procedure will remain in place until such time as we are using the LTA's Clubspark system, which most tennis clubs have now moved to. 

The Clubspark system is planned to be used for the tennis section generally, and the tennis committee is still working on the details of how it will work in practice for WBC and to best suit the members. The LTA has successfully tested the system using touch screen monitors which should make life much easier for court bookings. 

As things progress we will set up an open day, probably on a Saturday, so you can come and ask questions and try out the system.  We will send out a mailchimp with an update by the end of January.
 
Ball Machine and GoPro Camera Booking
Until Clubspark is up and running anyone wishing to book the Ball Machine or the GoPro Camera should contact tennis manager Gavin Henderson on 07787 568642, by text if possible, during daytime hours Monday to Saturday.  When using the ball machine make sure courts 8 or 11 is booked so the balls are contained within the court.  It is only suitable for use when the weather is dry as damp, heavy balls cause the machine to stop. 

The GoPro camera is kept in the admin office and the ball machine in the secure cabinet in the galley kitchen.  There is no charge for the use of either of these items and Gavin will be happy to explain how to use them.
 
Mix-In During Christmas
Mix-ins during the Christmas period will be as follows:

Saturday 24 & 31 December: 1pm to 3pm (honesty box for cake)
Sunday 25 December & 1 January:  Courts 1-5 available as usual
Wednesday 28 December: 6pm as usual
 
Have a lovely Christmas and best wishes for 2017.
