In line with government regulations and LTA guidance Congleton Lawn Tennis Club has reopened in a limited way.

The committee have opened the courts for use by paid up members for singles or doubles from the same household or singles with one other person outside their household.

Social distancing guidelines must be followed at all times. We have taken the nets off courts 2 and 8, the middle courts in the blocks of three courts, to help with this.

The clubhouse will remain closed. That means there will be no access to toilets and plasters and bandages, so please take this into account when visiting the club.

To avoid too many people at the club at any one time, courts must be booked in advance. You must be a paid-up member to book a court, but the committee has reduced membership this year to only £50.00, so why not use this opportunity to try out the sport or return to it after a break.

As singles is allowed the 2020 CLUB SINGLES LADDER is therefore open for business - and caters for players off all standards.

Anyone wishing to take part should contact Nick Wilkins.

Remember from the start of 2020 anyone can challenge anyone all year round, but if the challenger is more than four places above or below the person being challenged then the person challenged can refuse.
