GENERAL COVID-19 COMPLIANCE / TRACK AND TRACE -

  • Use hand sanitisers before and after play;
  • Complete matches 15mins before the end of your booking slot;
  • Maintain social distancing and avoid socialising before and after games;
  • Do not bring your own alcoholic drinks for consumption on the club premises;
  • Select ALL players and opponent(s) when booking courts (more on this below);
  • Members and their guests must download and install the NHS Track and Trace App and scan in using the QR codes on courts gates and doors;
  • When playing in socials and or team practice either scan-in using the NHS app or complete the sign in book located at the rear door to the club house;
  • In the event of yourself or anyone you live with contracting COVID-19 please email the Club Committee: info@graftontennisandsquash.com




NEW TENNIS COURT BOOKING REGULATIONS

Before Lockdown 2.0 one of the pain points for tennis players was the lack of court availability and late cancellations. In light of that, and in light of trying to keep everyone safe during this pandemic, please read the below:

-> Court bookings must show the name(s) of the people you'll be playing with. If you're playing on your own, then still click the box to select an opponent and select *Serving Practice* as your "opponent" from the drop-down menu.
-> Any courts bookings within 72 hours that don't show an opponent's name will simply be cancelled. No reminders will be sent.
-> Guests are welcome to play during off-peak hours only. Any court bookings made with guests during peak hours will be cancelled. No reminders will be sent.

Please bear in mind the below hours:

WEEKDAYS:
0800-1600 Off Peak
1600-2200 Peak

WEEKENDS:
0800-1600 Peak
1600-2200 Off Peak

-> If you believe your booking warrants an exception, for example if it's for a Surrey Knockouts match, then please contact graftoncomms@gmail.com in plenty of time to further discuss.
