Hello Junior Branch Community! We are pleased that, due to the high level of vaccination rates across Greater Sydney, that this summer's Saturday morning tennis competition will likely commence on 20 November . It will be a shortened competition due to a number of key COVID-19 restrictions not being lifted until recently. Here's a copy of the letter that was sent to coaches on 13 October. If you have not yet spoken with your coach about being registered in a team, please contact them urgently. If you would like to play but don't have a coach or a team or need a third player, send an email to isltapremier@gmail.com with the following information: Name and surname DOB UTR (universaltennis.com ) Mobile number Coach's name (if applicable. Alternatively, include previous coach details) As we are made aware of updates from Tennis NSW and the NSW State Government, will be in touch to advise you of those details. Premier Grade Due to restrictions still in place, no trials will be held for the summer competition. Teams have been formed based on previous results and UTRs. Thank you for your continued patience and support during these difficult times. We are all greatly looking forward to a COVID-free, great summer of tennis for our juniors. See you on court very soon.
