Membership

Juniors

ClubSpark, the membership & club management software, requires that any junior account be associated with a parent account which handles all the junior’s affairs. The specifics of this linking process are outlined in this article from Tennis Australia.  This dependency on a parent account is removed once a junior ages out of being a junior as defined in ClubSpark – currently under 15 years (Note that this definition of “junior” differs from that for competition, where Juniors must be under 18 years).

 

Each year, the Winter season for Juniors starts in early May and concludes around the end of August or beginning of September while the Summer season will commence in early October and concludes in March. Higher division matches are played Friday evenings and the remaining divisions on Saturday mornings.

Juniors must be aged 17 or under as at the first match of the relevant season

Team information, match score sheets, schedules and locations are available on-line through Tennis Australia’s Match Centre application (https://matchcentre.tennis.com.au/. All players registered in a team squad can access this information using their Tennis account log in.

If your team cannot field sufficient players for a match, please inform the junior coordinator, Sally Huefner, as soon as possible on 0419 815 827 or juniorcoords@etkgtennis.org.au

Junior Team Training is on Wednesday afternoons/early evening.

Seniors

Each year, the Winter season for Seniors starts in early May and concludes around the end of August while the Summer season commences in early October and concludes in March.

Winter matches begin at 1:00pm. Summer Matches begin at either 1:00pm or 3:30pm. Players should be at their court 15 minutes prior to the start of play.

Team information, match score sheets, schedules and locations are available on-line through Tennis Australia’s Match Centre application (https://matchcentre.tennis.com.au/. All players registered in a team squad can access this information using their Tennis account log in.

A court roster will be posted on the outside noticeboard of the club rooms at the start of the season. Please check the board or the website each week for court allocation.

If you are unavailable for a match please inform your team captain. Players are expected to be available for all matches.

Social tennis

Social mixed doubles tennis is played every Wednesday evening all year round (weather permitting). This is very popular for Club Members and guests. For more information, go to the Wednesday Night Tennis page.
