Club rules

Club Rules

Although we’re generally a very friendly and relaxed club, we do have a few “rules” that we would like all players to follow in order to maintain a happy, inclusive, and safe club.

 

  • For all games and sessions, please use the booking app to book the court prior to use. This prevents confusion on timings.

​​

  • All non-members must book and pay to access the court, and are restricted to between the hours of 7am and 4pm.

​​

  • Please remember to lock the court with the padlock after use to maintain court security, as well as lowering the net.

​​

  • Please respect the court surface. The court is for tennis activities only. Activities like skateboarding cause considerable damage to the surface and as such, are not allowed.

​

  • No dogs allowed anywhere on the site - as the court is located within the Crosthwaite Recreational Field grounds, please respect their "No dogs on site" policy. This is for the safety of children that also use the grounds. 

​​

  • If using the ball machine, please take care to return it to the pavilion and put it back on charge, with all balls in the cage and put away neatly in the cupboard. Unfortunately, the machine must not be used when it rains, or even with a damp court surface, as this will block the machine with tennis balls. There is a minimum age of 15 to use the ball machine, unless supervised by an adult (over 18 years of age). 

​​

  • The pavilion is a shared space, and should respectfully be left clean & tidy after use. If there are any issues, please contact a member of the committee above.

Policies

The Important Bits

We take issues like Child Safeguarding and the Right to Equal Opportunities seriously. The links below provide more information on the policies that we follow for each. 

​

Child Safeguarding

​

In accordance with LTA Safeguarding Guidelines we have a Welfare Officer, Chris Mowat, who is available to offer advice and guidance. For further details on Safeguarding policy and helpful information, click Learn More below.

Equal Rights Document 

​

The club sits within the Crosthwaite & Lyth Recreational Trust site and therefore we adhere to their Equal Rights guidelines, which you can download here
