COURT BOOKINGS

We are keen to ensure all members interests are being protected in terms of court availability and playing opportunities. We want courts to be busy all the time and to help this we ask everyone to follow the processes when booking and attending your tennis or padel booking:

On arrival confirm with reception you are here
The lead booking must provide the player names
Fees to be paid in advance; Guests* £30, Non-racquets members £15 padel and £10 tennis
If you are late or need to cancel please notify reception immediately

We understand extenuating circumstances can arise, however if you need to cancel or are running late for your court please notify reception to avoid booking rights being revoked.

Booking Rights Suspension - If contravention of these procedures takes place the booking of courts will be suspended.

*All guests (non-members) must be signed in by a current member who remains responsible for their guests behaviour throughout a visit.
