HTC RACE NIGHT

DATE Saturday 25th February 
TIME 7.30 for 8pm first race 
VENUE HSA Pavilion

Price £5 to include entry and supper.

Are you one of the people who bought a horse at the Tennis Club Christmas Party? If so come and see it race and if 1st pick up your winnings! 33 of you lucky people already own a horse with more available. If you don't want to own one you can still bet on any horse in any of the 8 races throughout the night. With bets on individual horses only costing £1 it won’t break the bank! 

We appreciate that many of you may never been to a race night before but please come along - the more people the more exciting. These evenings are great fun and it is a fantastic opportunity to raise funds for the club.

Guests can dine with us for Â£13.00 and members of Huntswood Golf course just need to pay £15.00.
We have given people the option this year of making up a team of 4 people themselves as often people like to bring friends or family and want to play with them or, if you prefer to mix and match then  you can put your name down on one of the groups of 4 and this will also build up random teams of 4 so please dont worry if you dont have a team of 4 we can make that happen for you!  We only ask that we have a nominated Captain for each 4 so that they can  collect the £15.00 per head and get it back to Sue or Anita , along with handicaps, by August 4th as we have to pay for the meal.  You can pay for the golf on the day. 
We have lots of fun prizes for everyone and welcome golfers of all standards to come along and have fun!  The poster with all details is now up in the clubhouse.

HTC Member does 3 Peaks Challenge

Here is a message from a member of the club, David Crawley, who is taking part in the 3 Peaks Challenge:

"As some of you will be aware, in a few weeks time (1st weekend in July) I am part of a team attempting the 3 Peaks Challenge. The challenge requires us to climb Ben Nevis in Scotland, Scarfell Pike in England and Snowdon in Wales all within 24 hours (including the driving between them!)
We have been putting in a fair bit of training and have high hopes of succeeding in our cause. Aswell as doing it for our personal achievement we are also hoping to raise as much money as possible for Whizz Kids charity which helps provide wheelchairs for disabled children.
Anyone that would like to sponsor me can do so by clicking on the link below.

Alternatively, I have placed a paper sponsor form up on the clubhouse noticeboard.
Thanks for all your support, and see you soon on the courts.

Refurbishment Work

If you have been up to the club recently, you cannot have failed to notice all the hard work being done on the club house to repair and upgrade the facilities.  We are expecting all the work to be completed by the end of the first week in April, ready for the new tennis season.  While the work is being done, we ask for your patience over a couple of matters.  
Firstly, there will be limited tea and coffee making facilities until the work is complete.   
The second issue is the refurbishment of the toilets; they have currently been removed and will not be ready for three weeks.  During this time we have provided a "Portaloo" for members to use.  For those of you who would prefer a more genteel facility, you should be able to use the toilets in the main building (Ken Williams Memorial Pavilion).  Access to the pavilion should be simple as it is open each morning during the week and several afternoons.  A key fob is required to gain access to the pavilion and there are several of these distributed throughout the membership.  
We apologise for any inconvenience and ask for your patience for a few more weeks – we are sure the end result will be beneficial to all members.

Movember 2010 - in aid of Prostate Cancer Charity

A message from Andy Carter:

I have decided to throw my (not inconsiderable) weight behind this and grow a tash during Movember, in aid of the Prostate Cancer Charity.

It you feel you are able to sponsor me, that would be fantastic - just go to the website and pledge the donation (http://uk.movember.com) - be a bit careful though, there are three other Andrew Carters doing this. Alternatively I will be carrying around the sponsorship forms to tennis and badminton. Last year the Thames Water team raised over £25k for the charity which was fantastic - but the aim, as always is to do better.

It will be interesting to see if the tash turns out as grey as the rest of (what remains of) my hair or if I end up like Alastair Darling!

Touch Tennis at BITC

Try something new today... well, not today but on 30th October!
The Bucks Indoor Tennis Centre is holding a touch tennis session for all adults and juniors over the age of 16, on Saturday 30th October.
Want more reason to enter? You could win £50!

touchtennis is a fast growing variation of the standard game of tennis. Played on a smaller court with soft balls, the game is growing in popularity with adult players. 
The beauty of this new sport is the need for players to evolve from regular tennis dominated by "power-hitting," to more cultured and strategic play - hence the name touchtennis. Speed of mind, understanding of the rival’s weakness and exquisite touch count far more than physical strength and power. Outmanoeuvring your opponent is far more effective than trying to out hit them. 
The games addictiveness comes mainly from the way it "levels the field" amongst different players and sexes. The ingenious design of the interaction, between racket-ball-surface-court dimensions, allows for longer rallies and putting the ball away sometimes seems impossible! 
The sport has seen many former tennis players (former Wimbledon winners) and commentators give up playing lawn tennis to play full time on the touchtennis circuit and compete fiercely for ranking points. It is great fun to play and brilliant for beginners and less experienced tennis players. The short history of the sport is proving very successful and the touchtennis circuit with its tournaments (slams and masters) is becoming more and more popular. Full details of the sport including its history and background can be obtained from our website www.touchtennis.com which also includes a list of forthcoming tournaments. 


Need some more temptation? Check out this video: http://www.youtube.com/user/touchtennis#p/u/6/aNJ0Y18KA9k

If you want to get involved with this exciting event, sign up on the Touch Tennis website, www.touchtennis.com.

Roughing it for charity

A message from one of your fellow members:

"You may remember that last year, I asked friends and family for sponsorship in support of a charity venture I was doing. Well, once again I will be braving the elements on Friday 8th October, and "sleeping rough" in central London in aid of Action for Children.
This is an incredibly worthwhile charity that work tirelessly to help homeless youngsters, and I will be joining several work colleagues to make up a "Steria" team as part of "Byte Night" - the I.T industrys drive to make a difference to the lives of underprivileged young people. So I would like to invite you to visit our "virgingiving" site via the following link, and to make a donation - of whatever you can afford...
Last year your generosity contributed towards our eventual total of nearly £4,000, which Steria then added to to give us a fantastic final amount of over £5K for the evening!!  So I am sure that I can count on you once again (and please forward this mail onto anyone else who you feel may wish to also contribute)..... many, many thanks in anticipation. 
Best wishes, Jim"

Tesco and Sainsburys Vouchers

A big thankyou to all those who kindly donated their Tesco and Sainsburys vouchers to the club. The scheme for this year has now closed and I have sent off the vouchers to the relevant companies.  For Tesco we collected 1105 vouchers and for Sainsburys we collected 640.  As it is our first year of collecting, the junior committee decided they would like to bank all the vouchers so next year they can go towards bigger items.
Many thanks once again.

Apply 2010!

It is that time of the year again...this year, in spite of the significant additional benefit of HSA membership, we have not only persuaded the treasurer NOT to raise the fees this year, BUT we will still be offering the discount to prompt-paying (ie. by the end of April) continuing members – fantastic! You may remember last year, to help spread the payments a bit, particularly for the family memberships, we’ve offered a standing order payment system. Not many availed themselves of last year, but it is remaining available should it be a help to you. As a reminder, if the total of the subs is over £200, you can pay in four equal monthly instalments (April – July). Just download the standing order form and send it in with the completed application form.
