If you want to play for the Reid Tennis Club, contact Sue Willis on 0434 982 924. Entries close 19 August, so contact Sue well before then.

18.01.2022 Some young adult players organised more than 20 of their friends for a tennis afternoon on Thursday. They all had a great time.
18.01.2022 Social tennis at Reid
17.01.2022 The carpet has been laid, and the sand is going on today. It looks beautiful and green without the sand on top. The sand will lighten the colour, and will take a few weeks to settle in properly. On track to be playable on Thursday. The contractors will be doing some repair work on the bottom courts on Thursday. If you have a booking there, move to the corresponding top court. Hopefully, all four courts will be open for play on Friday.
16.01.2022 Courts 1 and 2 will be resurfaced in the two weeks (but only one weekend) between 7 September and 18 September. This will be good news for all players, as the courts were worn out and seriously impacted by tree roots. As part of the resurfacing, tree roots under the courts will be removed and the playing surface levelled. The courts will be out of action for almost two weeks, and bookings can no longer be made for this period. The bottom courts remain open, and regular players will need to transfer to these courts for a short period. The club is assisting with managing the permanent bookings to be fair to all players. The club is talking with the ACT government about a permanent solution to incursion by tree roots, and hopefully the new surface will not be affected by this problem.
16.01.2022 What a hive of activity at Reid from noon to 3pm today. 36 kids aged 6 to 12 using small courts having a great time. Lots of supporters picnicking on the lawns.
14.01.2022 LIGHTING UPGRADE BY CHRISTMAS In December, the Club will be installing new LED lights on existing poles for all four courts. This will provide more reliable, brighter and more even light over the playing area. The ELA Unilux lights are also at the Canberra Tennis Centre, Campbell and Braddon tennis clubs, and numerous sporting facilities around Australia. The Club is being assisted by Tennis ACT, a $42,000 grant from the ACT Government, and a $7,000 grant from Tennis Australia.
12.01.2022 The resurfaced courts were officially opened last Sunday. It was a wet day and no tennis was played, but we all had fun. Terry cut the cake, a wonderful fruit cake made by Sue.
12.01.2022 RESURFACING STARTS. Work started today on resurfacing Courts 1 & 2. The lovely new synthetic grass surface should be ready to play on by the weekend of 19/20 September, just two weeks away.
11.01.2022 Reid will be hosting Open Court Sessions every Tuesday evening in February. 90 minutes of tennis activities and socialising for everyone, including tennis on smaller courts, pickle ball, and triples on a full court. You’ll have a great time, no matter what your skills. Book at https://play.tennis.com.au/opencourtsessions/reidtennisclub
11.01.2022 Innovative tennis at Reid during these challenging times. Never too young to start?
10.01.2022 Frank, David, Terry and Kerry give the new surface on Court 1 their seal of approval.
10.01.2022 Keep Safe While You Play Tennis ACT has provided clubs with Guidelines for Playing Tennis during these challenging times: see Tennis Australia https://www.tennis.com.au/play/covid-19. While not wanting to repeat what is in the document, some key points are:... Social/casual tennis will continue at the club. Have respect and understanding for those playing with you. Strict social distancing and hygiene (including hand washing) practices are critical. Please note the guidelines and in particular the section headed OUTDOOR SPACES. Bookings can continue to be made using Book-a-Court. The gates will be open during daylight hours so that players will not need to touch the keypad for entry. Those playing at night will need to use the keypad. Wash/sanitise your hands first, if possible. Use the club house sparingly. Again, wash/sanitise your hands first, if possible. Coaching will continue. Please refer to Tennis Canberra for more detailed information http://www.tenniscanberra.com.au Canberra Tennis League matches have been cancelled by Tennis ACT. Remember, if you play during these challenging times, think about and respect those you are playing with.

05.01.2022 The new LED lights have been installed and working well.
04.01.2022 NEW LIGHTS THIS WEEK New LED court lighting is set to be installed this week. For safety, courts will be out of action for some of the time between 7:30am and 4pm. Courts 3 & 4 on Wednesday until lunchtime Thursday, Courts 1 & 2 from lunchtime Thursday and on Friday. We don't want to risk a spanner dropped on anyone's head! This should give a greatly enhanced lighting experience for night tennis, while reducing ongoing costs and environmental impact. Probably the first use of the new lights will be for the pennant competition on Thursday night. The Club is committed to maintaining the playing experience, clubhouse and court surroundings at the highest possible standards in keeping with our heritage.
04.01.2022 COURTS ARE CLOSED Tennis ACT, after consultation with the ACT government, has recommended all tennis activity cease, and all courts be closed because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Keep safe, and we hope to have you back playing as soon as it is safe to do so.
