Dates for the Staffs Schools Events have been scheduled as follows. All events take place at Clayton Hall Academy.
Potteries league look like restarting a 2man league, start date tba, anyone wishing to take part ensure your TTE licensce is upto date and let R.Rhodes know via this feed, watts app or text to register your interest. Captains, teams, home nights TBC😀
Spoken with one of the school Trust officers today, sad to say we will NOT be back Monday evening before October half term from her response we could be looking at a 2021 return to Clayton Hall Academy 6-7pm Junior and 7-10 senior sessions. Cases have been high in this area, and in Newcastle Under Lyme, there is no cleaning team to go round after community users have been in and the school sub lets their facilities out to users like us and cannot jepordise their own site getting contaminated by outside users, I urge those who wish to, to continue too or start using our match venue for practices (Silverdale Social Centre) booking is through Andy Smith and we have excellent Covid TTE approved safe procedures in place to control the safety of the users at this venue.
Moving forwards their are some financial implications for the club to deal with centered around the running cost of using our match venue and we will be looking to come up with solutions for 2021.
Still pushing for a Monday return to Clayton Hall Academy, but still no date in sight, working hard to try and get us back asap.
In the meantime next week see's two strong squads take part in the Stone league revamped 2 man league best of 5, play each other twice, new start times too 7pm. The two Robs, captain the teams and will be both strong contenders for the top positions 12 teams in all start their campaign next week, updates to follow on both teams. Both team up against title contenders Tennis A and B. No easy matches for either squads...followed by a Penkhull Derby the following week # thick and fast...😎
Still no change on Monday evenings, however bookings for hiring outside facilities at the school are looking to commence next week, so that's really positive and if all goes well we could be back in by the end of the month/early October, fingers crossed.
All sessions Junior and Adults once they restart will be £4.
Keep checking this page for updates, as soon as we hear a change you will hear it asap on our facebook page.
Update on Monday night training at Clayton, just had a message from the schools community sports manager, can't see us back in Mondays for a few weeks yet, seems the government want schools to settle in first to routines etc before schools open up to the community again for bookings, i will try and keep you all posted. Some TT is happening with 3 teams taking part in the Stone league starting mid September. More to follow on that too.....
