3 What to Wear to Lessons Clothing should be appropriate for the weather. Shorts and a T shirt when it s warm. Track pants and a windcheater for when it s cool. Don t wear clothing that will restrict your movement, e.g. jeans. Flat soled runners are also a must. Heels are not permitted on the courts. Coaching Fees Enclosed with this newsletter is a ing notice for next term. It has the details of your fees owing and paid up to the date of printing. If you could settle your account by no later than the 3 rd week of the term, it would be much appreciated. Coaching fees are due and payable prior to the first lesson of the term. Your payment holds your position throughout the term. If you miss a lesson, we can try to organise a make up lesson, but unfortunately we are unable to give refunds or credits for lessons that you miss. Private & Semi-Private Lessons Private and semi-private lessons are ideal for rapid improvement, fixing and developing strokes, and working out a game plan to suit the individual s strengths. Private lessons are for 30 minutes or a full hour organised at times that suit. Paying for Shared Private Lessons The cost for a half hour private lesson is $26/28. If you share that lesson with another player, the cost will be billed as a term fee. That way if only one player turns up, it is not their responsibility to pay for the entire lesson. Make Up Lessons If you miss a lesson, we can try and organise a make up lesson. Check with Chris. Make up lessons are subject to places being available. Unfortunately we are unable to give refunds or credits for lessons that you miss. Bad Weather On rainy or very hot days, Junior Group and Prep lessons will still be held at the regular time, but will be held in the clubhouse. We have an indoor program prepared called Off Court Tennis. This includes quizzes, board games, puzzles, crosswords etc... all designed to educate the pupils about the rules, court positioning, tennis etiquette, tactics and the international tennis scene. And of course we still have our mini indoor tennis court with foam tennis balls. If it s raining or too hot, the lesson is still on. Private lessons, hitting sessions, squad training, and adult classes are all subject to the weather. We will always attempt to phone and advise you if the lesson is cancelled. Make sure we have a phone number that will get hold of you.
