Care and maintenance of tennis courts
The tennis courts are marked out immediately before the start of the season each year. Posts and nets are put up at the beginning of each season and removed during the winter. Throughout the season the courts are swept each week and all litter removed from site.
Courts will be treated with moss killer and weed killer as required, and pressure washing will follow the treatment of moss.
Fences will be inspected and maintained to ensure that they are in good repair at all times.
To request more information about tennis court maintenance, or to report a problem with the courts, please complete the online report form. Your report will be investigated within two working days, and a full reply sent within 20 working days.
