The tennis committee is not an elected body, it is made up of volunteers often recruited by the Tennis Captain when their term begins (at the AGM in end of Feb). The tennis captain chairs the tennis committee and reports back to the General Committee once a month.
Junior Committee
The Junior Committee help manage and organise events aimed at junior members. They are a very important part of the club and events such as the Family Fun Day, Santa Party and Junior Close simply could not happen without them.The Committee meets 4 or 5 times a year in advance of the junior events. The Junior Committee is not an elected committee and so is possible for members to get involved at any time of year.
