21.01.2022 Social Tennis is back again at Croydon Tennis Club

20.01.2022 Yay! Can’t wait!

18.01.2022 Which tennis player you would like to meet?

18.01.2022 I know I've said this a lot lately, but Victorians really are doing an incredible job. We've gone from more than 700 new daily cases to low double digits in jus...t over a month. Our averages are falling, and we're moving forward. That means from 11:59pm tonight, Melbourne moves to the Second Step in the roadmap towards reopening. Over 125,000 workers will go back to work this week with those in permitted industries returning to on-site work around metro Melbourne. Primary school, VCE and VCAL, and specialist schools will begin a gradual return to the classroom from 12 October. And childcare centres will re-open for all kids, taking some pressure off parents who're working from home. We're easing restrictions on outdoor public gatherings too. From Monday, up to five people from two separate households can meet for a picnic in the park, to kick a footy or just to catch up outside. Outdoor pools will open up again, and outdoor religious ceremonies can occur with up to five people (plus a faith leader). And because we said we'd lift it the moment we could and the Chief Health Officer has advised we can the curfew will no longer be in place after tonight. These changes mean that our strategy is working and we could never have reached this point without the individual efforts of every Victorian. But we're still in a pandemic. This virus is still in our community. And even with lower numbers - the danger isn't over. That's why staying local and limiting movement across the city is crucial and why the 5km limit will remain in place. With more people moving around our city, the requirements for how we wear masks outside are also being strengthened: From tomorrow you’ll need a face mask that fits properly over your nose and mouth. That means face shields, scarves, and bandanas can no longer be used on their own. Like always, this change is based on the advice of our public health team and the best strategy to stop this virus spreading. The other big change we announced today is to the roadmap itself. Going forward, instead of having to reach both a set date and a case number target to trigger a public health review we're now using case numbers plus a minimum gap of three weeks to prompt our next steps. This means we could reach COVID Normal faster if the 14-day average, mystery case numbers, and public health advice allow it. And it'll give everyone a better understanding of when, and how, things might change. Our success in getting the numbers down quickly gives us this flexibility and that's because of you. But while we are beating this virus and exceeding the modelling too we aren't out of the woods just yet. I know some people want to move faster and go further, and I wish we could too. But to rush these steps and open up too quickly would be, quite frankly, irresponsible. Small freedoms gained by easing a few more restrictions now would jeopardise our larger wins down the track and would likely slow our progress. No one wants that. Our biggest enemy is complacency, our biggest challenge is staying the course. And if we pretend this is over we'll risk everything we've sacrificed so much for. We're fighting a frightening enemy a virus that's already done so much damage right around the world. So please keep your foot on the pedal, don't let all our hard work slip. It's up to every one of us to see this through.

16.01.2022 This post is from our karate school, it’s been a hard year with 2 terms of no karate. We are very fortunate in tennis that we can play when we can. Keep moving forward #croydon #croydontennisclub #CroydonTogether

13.01.2022 ALL SPORTS PARENTS NEED TO READ THIS: 70% of kids drop out of their sport before age 13 because of these 4 reasons: Yes, you read it right, 70% of all kids qu...it organized sports by the age of 13, and the number one reason they cite is that it is not fun anymore. There can be a few reasons why kids drop out early: 1. Over zealous parents - Parents are fueled by their talented kid to spend all their time and money on pursuing the kids sports career. They feel the more, the better, when in fact it’s that continual push that can at most times send their kid over the edge. They also seem to panic when other kids the same age as theirs might be winning or doing better, so they make changes in coaches (-also known as 'coach hopping') and add on more tournaments. 2. Too much competition at a young age - Burn out and over playing can occur at a very early age. Kid’s that compete too much and too early are in the 70% category of quitting a sport sooner than later. Too much competition at a young age also means that they are not busy doing the things they should be doing more of, like athletic skill and technical development. 3. It’s not fun anymore - The kid doesn’t enjoy playing anymore due to the loss of fun. They are always practicing or playing matches. Also, the pressure and more attention to simply ‘winning’ applied by coach an/or parent. The fun is simply drained out of it because of 'win at all cost' coaches and over-pressuring parents. Kids also start to see their friends having more fun having more balance in their lives, playing other sports and going to friends houses, fun activities etc.. Always remember what the number 1 reason was why kids started to play a particular sport - because it’s FUN. 4. Too high expectations - When a kid is extremely talented at a young age or showing great potential, a lot of parents will be constantly told how brilliant or great their kid is. This is the mistake of society. Kids are put on pedestals way before they have earned it or should have. Ridiculous as it may sound, but here in the United States, I have heard parents of kids under the age of 12 years talking to University and college coaches about getting their kid to go there! And while I’m on that subject, parents pulling their kids out of school before 14, what are you thinking? Give your kids Balance and Education for as long as possible! It's understandable that Sometimes arrangements in time scheduling need to be made, but pulling a kid from the classroom permanently at these ages does more harm than good. Conclusion: The most important thing as a parent or coach, is to always make sure the kid is having FUN. I would recommend that both the parent and coach provide the balance to this equation. Parents, your role is simple: Just be there to lend unconditional love and support. Also, remember to let the coach, coach. Have some integrity and patience, stop the coach hopping and thinking the grass is always greener when another kid does well. Most of all - Let you kid decide if they still find it fun. It should and always be their choice. Coaches, make sure the vital stages of athlete/player development are adhered too. But most important of all, help develop their love for the game as well as their life skills. Enjoy the journey. - Allistair McCaw #ChampionMinded Champion Minded: Achieving Excellence in Sports and Life https://www.amazon.com//069279154X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_Ij

13.01.2022 *URGENT ANNOUNCEMENT* Do NOT drink tap water unless boiled first. Yarra Valley Water have issued a contaminated water notice for more than 80 Melbourne suburbs.... The issue arose due to damage caused by storms overnight which led to undisinfected water from Silvan Dam entering the water supply system. Customers in 88 suburbs are being told not to drink their tap water unless it is boiled. An estimated 250,000 households are affected. Many of these are in Hume.
