COVID 19 Club News 14/5/2020
It has been so good to see members coming out to play again in their bubbles.
Thank you to the committee who have worked hard and quickly to ensure we could open for our members under level 3. Under Level 2 our guidelines for play allow more freedom however there are procedures to follow as outlined below. Our Coaches are now able to work again which is great news; please visit the Meredith Brothers Facebook page or website for more information: https://www.meredithbrothers.co.nz/
Procedures for Level 2 Tennis:
The following procedures are for all play from Thursday 14th May until Monday 25th May:
- Guidelines released by Tennis NZ (13/5/2020) allow for a ‘maximum of 10 players. Multiple groups of 10 can be at a club/centre at the same time but different groups must not interact with one another or share equipment.’
- Members are to organise their own combinations of up to 8 players using a maximum of two courts.
- Bookings are essential: The club is open for members only and you must book your court online. You must name all players booked for each court; you cannot just name one player. For Saturday afternoons when large social play would typically occur, the booking columns are highlighted to better capture this.
