The tables were also returned to the courts.

Round Robin and Lunch

The Club is looking for a volunteer, or volunteers to organize a round robin and lunch session in July.  It would be similar to the event held September 23 2023.  If you are interested please email info@kincardinetennisclub.com.

Court Reservations 

Court reservations are filling up for morning weekday slots.

All three courts have been rented by a group of players from out of town on June 18 from 8 AM-noon.  All bought day passes.  KTC is happy to welcome these visitors in order to spread the word about the lovely courts in Kincardine.  Pickleball was moved to noon to accommodate the rental.

Court reservations can be made by emailing info@kincardinetennisclub.com by 6:00 PM Sunday.  The maximum court reservation block is 2 hours.  The court schedule is posted weekly on the Club’s website at Info\Events, Lessons and Court Schedule.  The link is at https://kincardinetennisclub.com/?page_id=215.  

Court reservations are not required, but members with reservations have priority over members that drop in.

Lessons  

Group lessons for juniors and adults wrapped up June 14.  If you are interested in lessons contact Dave Lawrence at 289-685-1264.

Pickleball  

Pickleball on the tennis courts has been nearly non-existent in 2024.  Only once were there enough players for a doubles game.  That session lasted for about 30 minutes.

Final Note 

Currently membership is up to 85, which is down slightly from this time last year.  There is still time to join, or re-join the Club

Note that after today, newsletters will only be sent to members that are registered in 2024.
