COVID 19 – UPDATE FOLLOWING 23RD MARCH ANNOUNCEMENT

Following the statement from the Prime Minister on Monday 23rd March all activities at the club have now been suspended. The courts and clubhouse are closed. The advice is very specific that Tennis Courts are not to be used. Please do not use them.

Whilst we are disappointed that we have had to make this decision I am sure that you will all recognise the need for this. Lives need to be saved. The government has indicated that the situation will be reviewed in three weeks.  We will of course update you if the situation changes.

To recap what was announced previously:

  • All external team matches are cancelled for the foreseeable future
  • Team Trials are cancelled
  • The Junior programme and Tennis camps are suspended
  • The Club and Tennis AGM meetings originally scheduled for 29th March are postponed.
  • And now, sadly, no tennis at all.

Please also note that the Shepherds Cot Trust is in the process of closing the site to all vehicles except those of the emergency services. The site will still be available to walkers, runners and cyclists.

We thank you very much for your support and friendship during this challenging time. Do stay safe, stay at home and keep your spirits up.

With all our best wishes,

 

THE GENERAL COMMITTEE, HIGHGATE C&LTC
