Dear Members & Players,

Most of you will be aware of the latest update in government guidance around the ‘rule of 6’ now relating to indoor team sports.

Whilst Tennis or Badminton are not considered to be indoor team sports per say, the latest changes will affect any organised sessions taking place indoors involving adults. Both the LTA and Badminton England have updated their guidance and I have outlined the key change below:

Organised sessions for adults which follow Covid-Secure guidelines and take place indoors may continue in groups of up to 15 – however players should be divided into sub-groups of 6 or less within the session. These sub-groups must not mix during the session but coaches can move between the groups.

The following examples all remain unchanged:

Organised sessions for children which follow Covid-Secure guidelines and take place indoors may continue in groups of up to 15 with full mixing permitted.
Organised sessions for children and adults which follow Covid-Secure guidelines and take place outdoors may continue in groups of up to 15 for both children & adults with full mixing permitted.
For informal social play, adults & children must not attend the centre in groups any larger than 6 players.

NHS COVID-19 APP

For those of you who have downloaded the NHS Covid-19 track & trace app you’ll notice that at all court entry points we are now displaying our own unique NHS QR code. On arrival at the centre please open the app and use the QR scanner to scan our QR code. This will assist with government track & trace and immediately notify you if you may have come into contact with a confirmed case of Covid-19.

If you haven’t downloaded the app to your smartphone yet you can do so here.

if you have any questions or concerns about any of the above please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Kind Regards,

Tom Vinall
Centre Manager & Head Coach
