JACK PETCHEY WINNER
Congratulations to George Paget, the new recipient of the Jack Petchey Award. George has been consistently volunteering his time on Saturday mornings now for a number of months. He shows great dedication towards improving his on-court work with the coaching team. George recently took part in a Tennis Leaders course as his next step within the club.
George’s confidence on court has improved hugely over the last few months and he is now an important part of the coaching team on a Saturday morning. (the picture is of him receiving the award)
NORTH KENT CUP MATCHES COMING UP

NEW STORAGE SHED AND SHED
The storage shed is now up but there is still a little sorting out and tidying up to do. The second shed may take longer as the old one needs removing and some preparation for the base is needed. Please do excuse it for being stored in the club house, but it will be moved as soon as we can. These sheds were chosen as they are recommended by both police and insurance companies. We hope they free up some space in the Club house by housing some equipment as well as store the new outside furniture.
