Dear
Welcome to Hampton-in-Arden Tennis Club!
On behalf of Hampton-In-Arden Tennis Club I would like to welcome your child to the club and provide you with some information about our activities.
The club provides opportunities for young people between the ages of 4 and 18 to receive coaching and competition in mini red, orange and green competitions and for juniors over 10 years old in the the North Warwickshire Doubles and other organised competition. All coaching is by qualified coaches who are trained and have been screened for their suitability to work with young people. Our Head Coach, Ian Poole is always happy to answer questions and advise on your child’s tennis development. Please talkto him or give him a call on 07968 451956.
We welcome parents to all training and competitions and value your support. We are keen to involve parents in the club and always welcome your input. Below is some information on training times and dates, and details regarding travel arrangements, kit and club registration.
Club sessions and activities take place at the club every dayaccording to the advertised schedule. Your child should play in comfortable sports clothing and non-marking trainers or tennis shoes. It is a good idea to bring a drink on court with you - but no breakable bottles please.
Arrangements should be made for your child to travel to and from training sessions and matches. It is important that children arrive on time and are collected promptly at the end of each session, if they are not making their own way home. If you are going to be late picking your child up, please contact the coach in charge ofthe session and let them know.
The cost of training sessions and competition fees are advertised by email and on the noticeboard. The club has a small annual membership fee of £35 which should be paid by May 1 each year with a £5 discount deductable if a second family member is also a member of the club.
Please complete the attached club membership form. For the safety of your child, it is important we are informed of any medical conditions or allergies. This information is treated confidentially and only used should your child fall ill or be involved in an accident while at the club.If you supply an email address we will send you regular electronic newsletters to keep you up to date.
More information is available at If you would like to talk to someone at the club about the information in this letter, or to dicuss any aspect of your child’s involvement with the club, please contact the Junior Tennis Co-ordinator, Jayne Barnes on 01675 443572.
