Solar panels for the gym

We have just completed the installation of our first solar panels with 73 located on the gym roof, saving us an estimated £10k per year energy and planting some 50 trees each year over it’s lifetime. Plans for next year include 2 more projects at the club to further reduce our reliance on expensive fossil fuels.

Court changes

The big change from artificial grass to lano grand clay is underway. Improved drainage and a new tarmac base will take place during May followed by the clay top later in the summer. A major investment of over £250k but well worthwhile to future proof our tennis facilities.

Our very own garden centre journey has started!

The yard at the rear of the stores has been repurposed from a waste ground to what we hope will be a thriving plant and vegetable growing area. There is a substantial polytunnel for raising seeds and growing indoor crops, as well as holding plants and cuttings for use around the club grounds.

Ollie, Michael and Charlie have worked tirelessly to build this growing space, all while carrying out the myriad of projects and day to day tasks around the club. So thank you to them for their graft and innovation! And thanks to Debbie for all her expertise.

The aim is to grow as many of our own flowers from seed as possible, which will ultimately help keep costs down while we hope maintaining a high standard of plants for the club grounds.

The second goal of the polytunnel, is to grow vegetables, fruits, leaves and herbs for use in the clubhouse kitchen. This first year will be experimental, and with close monitoring we can see what works best. If successful we hope to share any surplus produce with local food banks, but we’re getting ahead of ourselves. At this early stage only seedlings are evident, but there is plenty in the pipeline and we’re looking forward to reporting our progress from the ‘The Yard’.

New court

A new tennis court is built – making us the proud owners of 11 outdoors and 6 indoor courts as well as 4 dedicated mini courts.
