Dear Member
Further to the email sent last evening, the Committee can confirm that the Club will reopen for Restricted Play from tomorrow morning (Thursday 14th May).
Prior to going to the Club and resuming play, it is essential that all members read carefully the following:
1. https://www.lta.org.uk/globalassets/news/2020/lta-guidance-for-tennis-players—covid-19.pdf
2.LTA Summary Guidelines (see below)
3.Oakham Tennis Club Summary Guidelines (see below)
Please remember there remains in place other general Government advice on Staying Safe/Coronavirus, for example on age vulnerability; please do check all sources of information relevant to you prior to resuming play.
Members are urged to follow the above guidelines at all times to ensure that our Club environment remains safe
The Committee do not wish to bombard you with further information at this juncture, but wish to highlight the following practical matters:
1.The Clubhouse remains closed and, therefore, no toilet facilities are on site.
2.Courts must be booked online in advance via the Club website. DO NOT simply turn up expecting to play. If you need any help/advice with on-line booking, please contact Dan Potter 07834470940.
3.In order that the Club premises remain secure, please can you close the external gate as normal if there are no players still on site. In order to facilitate this safely, please sanitise your hands before and after opening the gate.
We are all obviously in “changing times” and hopefully greater normality will gradually return. In the meantime, please do your very best to follow the guidelines above and enjoy playing tennis again!
Kind regards
The Committee
