| YES our courts are open - subject to conditions |
Check out the latest club news regarding COVID-19 and what it means for the resumption of playing tennis at East Croydon Kilsyth Tennis Club. Check out the court availability timetable, included in the President’s message to all members - reproduced on our News page
Good news! .......On May 18, the club was notified by Maroondah Council that our courts can re-open subject to meeting a number of conditions - as part of the plan to ensure a safe return to play
So, we are all relieved there will be a gradual resumption of tennis activity. at the Club - including coaching programs.
Tennis Victoria have published a set of Guidelines for Return to Play- which is the key reference the club is using. Our club recognises the imperative of minimising the spread of the corona-virus. Following some simple precautions can help to reduce your risk of exposure to the corona-virus. You might like to visit our page on Actions to Reduce Risk of COVID-19 Infection
These are troubling times ....... But by continuing to care for each other and asking for help if we need it - then we will get to the other side of the pandemic...... If you are required to undergo quarantine at some stage because you suspect you carry the virus, then you might be interested in our page “Coping With Self Isolation”
SOCIAL TENNIS Thursday evenings - postponed until after pandemic crisis has passed
East Croydon Kilsyth Tennis Club offer plenty of competition tennis options - although during the current pandemic, all tennis activities and programmes have been deferred until later in the year. However when some normality eventually returns if you're not wanting to play tennis regularly in a team, then social tennis might just be the option that suits you
Social tennis will be offered on Thursday evenings, 7.00 - 9.00 pm. At this point, we can’t say exactly when social tennis will resume. There are simply too many unknowns associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.
When it does eventually resume, social sessions will offer a great opportunity to play tennis and meet new people, without having to commit to regular competition. The cost will be $5 per player (goes to cover lighting expenses). You can find out more information by contacting Kelsey (0408 731 065) or click here

We would like to encourage you to come down, join us for a hit of tennis and meet some of our members.

Club hosts a visit from our local state MP, David Hodgett
Over the next couple of months it is unlikely that either Night tennis competition, junior competition nor Saturday seniors competition will be resuming. However many coaching and social tennis options are available - and the schedule below offers a guide as to court availability. An email from the club president explains all of this further. You can read the email in our News section
East Croydon Kilsyth Tennis Club was delighted to host a visit from our local state MP, David Hodgett.
The visit served two useful purposes - firstly it offered David an opportunity to see first-hand the popularity of the kids FREE school holiday tennis clinic which was being run by our awesome club coaches, Andrew & Kelsey. David chatted amiably with some of the parents of kids who were participating in the clinic (over 100 juniors enjoyed the free clinic - and the BBQ that followed)
He also met three great servants of our club - Steve Baldry (club Secretary), Noel Hester (club President & Treasurer) & Mike Drummond (Night Tennis records Secretary). David recognised that volunteers such as these three, are the life-blood of any community sports club. He offered his support for the club's participation in the Tennis Australia exciting new program, "Get Your Racquet On" - designed to encourage both new and lapsed players to join us and have some fun with tennis.
