On 6 October we received notification from Tennis NZ that we are able to proceed with group lessons, with 9 students and 1 coach from multiple households. You can read the update here https://tennis.kiwi/covid-19/tennis-nz-updates/.
Further to our communication on 28 September, we will be running group makeup classes for students who have credit remaining from term 3, from Monday 11 October 2021, including Saturday 16 October (this is an additional day). You will not be charged when registering your player for these sessions. Once the sessions has run, we will adjust your credit voucher to reflect the number of sessions your child participated in.
If you have already made a booking for your child for next week, we still have this confirmed.
Each session must have at least 4 students to go ahead, and in the instance that they do not by 9am Friday morning, we will be in touch with you directly to convert your booking to a private, or semi-private lesson. These are charged at $70 per hour for up to 3 students in the makeup private.
If you have already made a booking for your makeup class and would like to amend it – either by adding or removing sessions please email us at the email address below. If you have not yet made a booking please do so ASAP, so we can confirm which sessions will proceed.
We do not believe that running holiday camps for 4 hours falls under the new guidelines, so will not be proceeding with these. If your child has a booking in a holiday camp we can move them to a makeup class instead. The 2 hot shots tournaments scheduled at Glendowie Tennis Club can not proceed.
