Dear Members and Guests,
 

We hope you and your families safe and well and looking forward to what should be a much brighter Spring and Summer period!
 

We wanted to take the opportunity to update you following the latest Government announcements on Monday evening. We are hopeful that if the test criteria outlined by the Government are met that we will be able to open our outdoor courts on Monday 29 March and we will be able to open indoor facilities on Monday 12 April. Detailed information on the tennis activity which will be permitted from Monday 29 March and beyond can be found here LTA
 

As mentioned in our previous update, we have suspended the payment of membership fees in February and we have this morning done the same for March. We plan to reactivate all memberships in April once we are able to re-open the clubs facilities in phases in line with Government and LTA guidance. To help us weather this difficult period, we previously asked any members who could afford it, to gift their membership fees during this third lockdown to the club. You can still opt into this by emailing sarah@northumberlandclub.org adding ACE to the subject line. Thank you to all members who have already opted in, we really do appreciate this and it is such a big help in manging the clubs finances and allowing us to make improvements to the club whilst we are closed.

 

Courts 10, 11 and 12 are now almost complete and the contractor is ready to hand the courts over to the club. We’re so looking forward to seeing members playing on these courts from 29 March. The team will be working hard over the next few weeks to ensure that we have as many outdoor courts as possible open and ready for play.

We will be in touch before our re-opening date with more detailed information on club opening hours, online booking instructions, the new membership system and any other updates or information you may require before returning to the club.
 

Take care, stay safe and we hope to see you at the club very soon.
 

Best wishes,

The Northumberland Club Team.
