We are a new, inclusive, friendly, club welcoming all ages and abilities. We welcome new members whether to join in social club sessions, play league or just use the courts when they can.
Opening late in 2006, in our first six months, membership reached 50, at the end of our first full year we have over 100 members, including a strong junior section.
We're entering one men's & one ladies team in the North Devon 2008 League and hope to enter more next year. We run various social club sessions including Friday afternoons. Plus social tournaments (open to everyone) once a month throughout the summer and an in house tournament for our members including a parent/junior partnership to get youngsters playing competitive tennis in a friendly environment. Club members have access to the facilities at the new sports centre such as showers, toilets, and lockers We're lucky to have two coaches working with us and so can offer coaching for all ages and abilities. Sarah Caffry runs beginner and improver classes for adults and children (aged 5 plus) and multi-skills for the very young. You don't even have to be a club member to take part in our community coaching. Chulmleigh Tennis club is also mini tennis accredited and last August Sarah ran a successful Summer camp coaching 75 children, which we hope to repeat. Jon Triggs (Westward Ho's club coach) has also joined us to give our talented youngsters, squads and more advanced adults extra coaching. In all we're running nine weekly coaching sessions plus junior matchplay. To find out more check out our website chulmleightennisclub.com |
