Senior Membership

Day Sessions Overview

Senior Day Sessions are held on Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 9:30am to about 12 noon. The Thursday morning session is specifically for those aged 50 or over unless otherwise agreed by the Club Captain.

Night Sessions Overview

Our Senior Night Sessions are held on Monday and Friday evenings from 7:30pm to about 9:00pm. These sessions are typically a bit more competitive but welcome all abilities, providing a good mix of ages and skill levels.

Tuesday Sessions

The Tuesday and Thursday sessions are very social and include a tea break for a chat, drink, snacks, and a small raffle, with members kindly taking turns to provide these. This is a great opportunity for social interaction and light-hearted competition.

Children at Day Sessions

These sessions provide an opportunity for members with preschoolers to come along and enjoy some exercise and social time. Members are responsible for their children at all times; however, when playing on the court, other players not currently playing may be able to help keep an eye on them.

Mini Tournaments and Points Days

Occasionally, Day Sessions include Mini Tournaments and Points Days, where points are accumulated for a fun prize at the end of the year. We also sometimes host players from other clubs for friendly matches, offering a great opportunity to play against new opponents. A small additional cost may apply for these special tournaments.
