Heversham with Milnthorpe Tennis Club

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. When can we play?

A. Club sessions are Sunday afternoons from 2:00pm and Tuesday evening from 6:00pm all year. Club sessions are open to all seniors; juniors may attend by invitation only.  Outside these times courts can be booked by members using the court booking system, see below. Courts are now usually available during daytime, both summer and winter, but check with booking system before playing.

Q. How do we book courts?

A. Courts may be booked using a simple on-line system, see Court Booking.  All members are given a username and password so they can see court usage and book courts up to 2 weeks in advance. Booking is always recommended due to coaching sessions, matches, singles box league matches, match play days and social use by Club Members. If you cannot use the court at the time you have booked please cancel the booking to allow other members to take the slot.

Q. How do we get tokens for the floodlights?

A. Tokens are available at club sessions from:

• Margaret Hesmondhalgh 015395 63342

Q. How do we get Wimbledon tickets?

A. Allocation of Wimbledon tickets for the 2010 Championships will be based on the number of Club Members who have signed up to British Tennis by 30th November 2009.  This is free to join until at least February 2012.  Without membership you will not be eligible for the draw for tickets and will not be able to purchase them from other Members.

Q. Who do we contact with a query or complaint?

A. Queries can be dealt with by any committee member listed on the committee page of this site. Complaints should be put in writing to the Secretary and will be dealt with by the committee at their next meeting.

Q. How do we get access to the club house?

A. Access is for seniors only. Juniors may use the club house but must be accompanied by an adult. Keys are given to new members and should be returned when membership ceases.

Q. Where are we allowed to park?

A. All members and parents are requested to park in the School car park a few yards from the courts on the opposite side of the road.  Please restrict parking on the road to pick-ups and drop-offs.  There is no parking on the School premises by the Clubhouse or Sports Hall.
