Matches take place during the week, Monday to Friday and play commences at 6.30pm (SUMMER), 7.00pm (floodlit WINTER league) with matches against other clubs in Middlesex West, such as West
Middlesex, Ealing, Teddington, Old Actonians, Gunnersbury Triangle and David
Lloyd’s Ealing (for fixture list please visit
http://lta.tournamentsoftware.com - and in the "find team"
section type in "Trailfinders" for all the Club's competitions).
There is a big social and fun element to this competition,
playing together as a team, playing against different clubs and new and
different people.
For
each match, home and away there is a “match fee”
payable. This is £10 for a home match (summer), £15
(winter) and £5 for an away
match. The fees go towards providing match meals for
both the home and away teams, floodlights and the tennis balls.
To play
for Trailfinders Sports Club, players have to be members
of the “Tennis Section”. The annual membership fee is be
£295 (£30 monthly). This entitles members to play at the
club without paying for courts, to be entered in the
club ballot for Wimbledon tickets, to have coaching
lessons without paying the non-members coaching fee and
of course to play matches for the Club.
Team
Training
Club
members are invited to attend team coaching/training
sessions. These sessions will focus on doubles tactics,
some technique, individual and team sport psychology,
and establishing doubles partnerships. The structure of
the session is doubles coaching for the first half, with
doubles play and analysis for the second.
Men’s
and Ladies' practise is weekly on Monday's and
Tuesday's respectively. The cost of each session is £15.
