Windsor Lawn Tennis Club

This year I am doing something COMPLETELY out of my comfort zone and will be walking a marathon at night in aid of Cancer Research. All money raised goes to breast cancer research which some of you may know has affected much of my family. Any and all donations gratefully received for a good cause…….in the interim wish me luck!!

1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. Every single pound you donate makes a difference to Cancer Research UK’s ground breaking work. Donate to my Giving Page today and help bring forward the day when all cancers are cured.

This is a reminder we’re gearing up for our annual Windsor Open Tournament which will run from Sunday 16th to Saturday 22nd July. This is a Grade 3 tournament which attracts competitive players from across the UK and further afield.

CALLING ALL VOLUNTEERS
We've had a great response so far and many members have put their names down as court supervisors which is hugely appreciated by the club.
There's still some more slots we need to fill (ideally weekday afternoons), so if you're keen and available please contact the bar on 01753 830820 and they will advise.

MONDAY, TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY, FRIDAY
Morning slot – 09.00-13.00
Afternoon slot – 13.00-17.00 - (most required)

Every year our members kindly volunteer as court supervisors during the week which involves supervising the matches and reporting any disputes to our tournament referees. You don’t need to have done this before and will be fed and watered throughout the day. We will confirm the rota for volunteer court supervisors in due course.

This year our tournament referee Janet Jamieson will be visiting the club THURSDAY 13TH JULY - 10AM - before the tournament week to talk to volunteers about the supervisor duties. We feel this will be very helpful so everyone understands what's required. All volunteers who've put their name down are welcome to attend.

CLUB SESSIONS & COURT AVAILABILITY - 16th-22nd JULY
Unfortunately, there will be no daytime club sessions during the week and it’s unlikely the evening sessions will be able to go ahead, due to the anticipated high number of entries. We will keep you updated throughout the week and if evening club sessions can go ahead, we will announce as early as possible. Courts will become available for you to book in the afternoons/evenings so do check your MYCOURTS account for the most up to date information. Courts will be released hourly so keep checking!

PARKING
Parking may be limited during the week and we apologise for any inconvenience caused.

SPONSOR
Huge thank you to our 2023 Tournament sponsor - Shanly Homes. We are delighted to have Shanly Homes by our side supporting the event which helps make a positive impact on the juniors and adults taking part.
