In order to join the Thursday Night or Sunday Afternoon Social Tennis groups, experience and a familiarity with tennis is required. For players who are beginners or who have not played in a long time, it is recommended that a few lessons with a qualified coach are taken prior to joining. This is to ensure the social player experience is worthwhile and enjoyable for all players.

Our friendly social coordinator, Lisa is always on hand to organise the player pairings for each doubles set. We organise 8 game sets, loosely based on standard, to ensure everyone gets a good hit. We also try to mix it up so you get to know as many of your fellow club members as possible. It is all about playing good tennis in good company.

Our club social is proving very popular with more than 30 players each week. A heavy demand for social tennis in good weather can cause waiting time between sets. When this happens we may operate a short deuce system to ensure regular and speedy court rotation. We aim to give each player a minimum of 3 sets at each session (subject to the time of arrival).

Due to this high demand, we have had to put a cap on the number of players attending each session. It is therefore necessary for players to pre-register their interest in playing, on the day of each session by texting ‘yes’ followed by your name to our social coordinator on 0418 181 203. The cut-off time for registering is one hour prior to start time. A ‘thumbs up’ response will indicate there is a spot available for you. Please do not just show up or you may be disappointed.
