Raynes Park Residents' Lawn Tennis Club - 5 July 2015

It’s at this time of the year that people start thinking about the Wimbledon Championships and assessing the prospects of the British players. Typically, inspired by the sight of players on television and the warmer weather, people will think about where they last saw their racquets, and they may even get them out for a quick knock in the park.

To capture the mood, we are holding an Open Day in Meadowview Road on the middle Sunday of Wimbledon, the 5^th of July, with free coaching and refreshments. All levels of ability are welcome from beginners to advanced. Balls will be provided and racquets are available. There will be a barbecue from mid-afternoon onwards. For those who can’t get there in the afternoon, there will be some people at the club in the morning. Discounted membership will be available on the day.

Jose Marquez, our popular LTA level 4 coach, already runs successful group coaching sessions on Tuesday and Friday afternoons and evenings. He is looking for feedback from members as to whether they require additional types of coaching and he is also looking to expand the programme.
