Calling all Mens Team Players....Interested in playing Mens Team Tennis?

Following hot on the heels of the ladies, the club would also like to hear from any of our men players who would like to represent us during the summer of 2012 and beyond. In terms of men's tennis the club currently has three teams playing in the Hampshire & IOW Leagues, four teams in the Hampshire & IOW Veterans Leagues (3 X 45+ and 1 x 55+), one team in Basingstoke Men's League together with various mixed teams in the Apsley and Sarum Leagues. These teams are in addition to sides that represent the Club at various age groups in the National Knock Out competitions.

We hope that through the various contacts that we have within the Club you will have already been spotted and your availability for team tennis discussed. The team captains review those players who participate in the various box leagues and also those players who participate in the squad training programme that currently exists at the Club for new and existing players. However, we recognise that for one reason or another we may have missed you and if this is the case please contact Mark or myself. Our contact numbers are below.

Ideally we would like to enter more Club sides in the various leagues especially at age group 45+, 55+ and the Basingstoke League. Sadly this cannot be achieved as it is important to have sufficient courts available for those members who do not wish to participate in team tennis and also our coaching squads.

You do not need to respond to this notice if you have represented the Club regularly over the past year as we assume you will want to continue playing this coming summer. However please contact us by 18 February if you want to get your name 'in the frame' and we can then assess the way forward. Just click on Phil or Mark's name below to send them a message.
