25.01.2022 There is no competition tennis today. All competition play is still temporarily suspended as per the SA government's current Covid regulations. Stay cool everyone and hopefully we will be back next week

25.01.2022 Ladies on the lawn

24.01.2022 Hi there fellow tennis tragics, hopefully you are all looking forward to tomorrow's matches. Going to be a chilly one again but at least we can play. Once again we have a message from the recording secretary, this time to let you know there's now blank scoresheets available on metrolawntennis.com website in the posts section if you are struggling with match centre. Simply fill in the scoresheet (with the names of all players from both teams) photograph it and send the photo ...to [email protected] Please only do this if you cannot get match centre to work. Stay tuned for further updates on how to use match centre. Have a smashing day tomorrow.

24.01.2022 Serve and receive - mens div 1,2 and 3 teams

24.01.2022 Last match before Christmas...And it looks like it's finally going to be a summer's day. Have fun, be sun smart and as always, have a smashing day!

24.01.2022 While you're enjoying the Christmas break, eating, drinking and being merry...here is some inspiration for the rest of the season.

23.01.2022 Well, well, well...the summer of tennis is finally upon us. Dont forget to be sun smart. Most importantly though, have a smashing day.

23.01.2022 A little something to get the muscle memory activated.

22.01.2022 A little inspiration for us all

21.01.2022 The recording secretary would like to remind everyone that it is a really super helpful thing when the following happens: 1. The winning captain enters the scores on match centre, it is even more helpful if you put the names of both your own team members and those of the opposition. 2. The captain of the team that did not win, sometimes known as the losing team, logs in to match centre and confirms that the scores are correct and the names of the players are correct. When these two things are done, the recording secretary is a much happier individual. He is easily pleased. I mean, he's not angry...just disappointed. Stay tuned for hints and tips for when you are unable to do either of these things.

21.01.2022 Just a reminder, confirm your results. The recording secretary lives for it.

21.01.2022 Thats right, tonight is the MLTAs AGM, which will be held at Reade Park Lawn Tennis Club. Club secretaries and captains should have details. A link for those who are unable to attend in person, but would like to participate online, will be sent to club representatives today.

21.01.2022 By now all club captains and secretaries would have received the following email, please read and pass on the information to team mates. Dear Club Contacts, During Tuesday nights MLTA Committee meeting the committee voted to abandon the remainder of the season. This decision followed the directive of Tennis Australia and Tennis SA. MLTA planned to have 6 finals series commencing this weekend:... Mens Div 1 Mens Div 2 Mens Div 3 (teams 1-4 in Mens Div 3/4) Mens Div 4 (teams 5-8 in Mens Div 3/4) Ladies Div 1 (teams 1-4 in Ladies Div 1/2) Ladies Div 2 (teams 5-8 in Ladies Div 1/2) The teams which finished the highest in each of these divisions will be recorded as the winner. We believe that teams who are top of their respective divisions after a season of 16 completed games are worthy winners. The end of season drinks and trophy presentation at the Coopers Alehouse has been postponed until later in the year. Pennants will be mailed out and individual percentage winners will be announced shortly. This is an unprecedented situation. The committee has the participants health and safety as their priority, and this is our most important consideration. Thank you all for participating in the season. Please continue to enjoy your tennis and we will get together later in the year. Regards. Chris Flynn President Carolyn Corkindale - Secretary

15.01.2022 Another beautiful day for tennis everyone, and a little warmer than last weekend, but not as hot as Wednesday. Should be a smashing day. Get out there and have a hit. Maybe not like this cartoon though...unless you have a really understanding partner.

15.01.2022 Hi everyone, Hopefully you are all keeping well. Remember, exercise if you can. Take the opportunity to wind down if you can, and enjoy time with your family.

15.01.2022 Hot, cold, hot, cold....like my last failed relationship, I wish this weather would make up its mind. Looks like another cool day, dress warmly, take something to read, and as always....Have a smashing day!

13.01.2022 Finally! After a long break, we are back! Remember to slip, slop, slap, seek and slide, stay hydrated and most of all have a smashing time.

13.01.2022 Hi everyone, Unfortunately, due to the heavy rains last night, which has led to clubs closing their grass courts for the day and the BOM's forecast, all matches for this afternoon have been cancelled. Please contact your club captain or Secretary if you need further information.

11.01.2022 Hopefully everyone had a great first day back on the lawn courts and whether you won or lost, had a great game. Just a reminder to all captains, winning captains, enter your score on match centre. Losing captains confirm the result. If you're having trouble entering or confirming scores, please email the recording secretary at [email protected] There was a problem entering ladies doubles results but this has since been resolved.

10.01.2022 Saturday afternoon tennis...smashing day.

10.01.2022 After receiving the email from Tennis Australia below, the Metro Lawn Tennis Assoc has made the decision to cancel todays round. Please make sure your club and all teams are aware of this decision Dear Tennis SA Affiliated Clubs and Associations...

We will continue to keep you updated and thank you for your cooperation during this difficult time for all of us.

10.01.2022 Hi everyone, Welcome back after the Christmas and New Years break. Looks like summer has arrived to welcome us too.

08.01.2022 Unusually, I have heard from Santa about the recording secretary's Christmas wish list. He has asked Santa to see if the team captains will enter and confirm their scores as a Christmas gift. Surprising really...I thought he would have asked for thumb screws...

01.01.2022 This is a reminder: captains, enter your scores if you are the victorious winners, and if you are the unfortunate gracious losing captain, confirm the result. If you are struggling to do either, email the recording Secretary at [email protected]
