The final of the new offers is Tennis Xpress which is aimed at Adult Beginners who are new or returning to the game. This six-week course looks to to build confidence and skills costs £30 or is free if you join the club.
The Club is adopting guidelines by Tennis Wales, the ruling body for tennis in Wales, to ensure safety is paramount. Tennis Wales and the Lawn Tennis Association have published detailed guidance for venues, coaches and players, so that tennis in Wales is able to safely resume.
Court usage is limited to members only, new members are always welcome with a special offer of half-price membership available from the Club. Both Singles and Doubles play is permitted.
Commenting on the move the Club’s coach Rob Wedlake said: “Tennis is a social-distant friendly sport. By following guidelines we can do our utmost to play safe while enjoying a great sporting activity for all ages and abilities. We are looking forward to getting on to the courts and playing the game we love.”
