Finals approaching

Dear Members

I have just returned from a trip in Europe and had the pleasure of playing tennis
with Mark and Richard at their local Tennis Club outside  Bath.
http://www.lansdownclub.co.uk
A very relaxed Club with carpet courts. Clifton has another connection with this Club as the Proudfoots, Luanne and Finley are also members, in fact I saw that Finley was standing for the committee.
Membership there is about R7000 per year!

Mark and Richard send their regards and look forward to visiting in the future.

Finals are approaching and an email has been sent out by the Organising Committee
regarding the matches and a bring and braai on Sunday 5th,

The Clifton Tennis Championships

Dear Members

The Championships are winding towards a finish and we hope to complete outstanding matches by May 15th.

The Committee has realised  that the time given to complete  the tournament  is an issue.

We will put it to the members that  next years tournament will have to be played in a shorter period and those not complying will forfeit their position.

We suggest that the tournament is played in a tighter time frame, and players secure partners who will be available for the matches.

We have had  trouble this year with players going away, getting injured, withdrawing and we believe that playing to a tighter deadline will solve a lot of these issues.

The  Committee welcomes suggestions as to how the tournament can be improved.

Thanks
Nick
