12.01.2022 For your entertainment, err, I mean information, here is my interview with Steve from Sports Community/VicHealth. Sorry about the delay in posting. I'm suffering from iso-memory loss! :) Enjoy!

12.01.2022 Please refer to the current COVID-19 Information below from Tennis Victoria, as it applies to the playing of tennis, and followed by Maidstone Tennis Club,

12.01.2022 Tennis Victoria update regarding resumption of tennis in Metropolitan Melbourne. Getting closer folks!

11.01.2022 Below is the Tennis Victoria Update following the Governments announcement that tennis can resume from today. TV is seeking further clarity in relation to the following point: "Groups of up to 10 are allowed from a maximum of 2 households. We don’t yet know if this is per court or per venue and whether or not a coach will be included in the 10." Once the above issue has been determined, MTC will make a further announcement on the use of our facilities. Hang in there. We're nearly there! :)

11.01.2022 Update to our International Food & Dancing Social Night. The date has been changed to Saturday 7 September. Watch this space for more information! :)

11.01.2022 MTC Christmas Party Friday 13 December - 7pm (What could possibly go wrong on that date?!) MTC Christmas Party Friday 13 December - 7pm (What could possibly go wrong on that date?!)

11.01.2022 Get ready folks! :)

11.01.2022 Just to clarify, social tennis is still on every Thursday . My reference below is for our Saturday night social, which has been postponed. Apologies for any misunderstanding. If you want a hit tonight, come on down!

11.01.2022 We're pleased to advise that tennis can resume in Melbourne based on certain government directions. Refer to the Tennis Victoria Update below for further details. As our club is located within Footscray North Primary School, we need to have authorisation from the Department of Education to open our facility. We are working closely with FNPS, to provide all the necessary information to ensure that we comply with all the requirements to operate within a safe COVID-19 environmen...t. The good news is that we are very close to re-opening. Further information will be provided once we are 'good to go'. Upon re-opening, everyone using our facilities will be required to register, either by a QR Code, or texting details to the Club Secretary. Information will be retained in case it is requested by the Department of Health. The data will be deleted after 28 days. Furthermore, the current requirements are a maximum of 10 people can use the facility at any one time, and each group on court, singles or doubles, must come from no more than 2 households.

10.01.2022 Important Update: Our courts at Footscray North Primary School are OUTSIDE the new Maidstone lockdown zone. Therefore, we can still use our facility! :) I presume the courts at Norfolk St will be closed by the council as they are in the lockdown postcode 3012. Please continue to adhere to social distancing and hand hygiene whilst at the club.

10.01.2022 Great night for a hit. Come down to the courts after 7.00pm. We're turning on the lights! Hey, no excuse. It's a public holiday tomorrow! YAY!!!!

10.01.2022 . To all the Maidstone Tennis Club community, please refer to the following important Victorian Government information as provided by the DHHS: We acknowledge that this is a challenging time for many people but if we all work together and follow the health advice, we can help stop the spread of COVID-19 for the good of our entire community.
