January 2012

The January newsletter, has been mailed, and you can download it here.

The new courts are almost finished and will be playable by the end of the month. The fencing and concreting are all done. It is anticipated that the lighting works will be ffinished in the first week of February, allowing night tennis to resume from Monday 6th, but this will need to be confirmed nearer the time.

Happy new year to all.

Progress has been good on the courts project since resumimg from the Christmas break. Fencing of courts 2 & 3 will be complete by 18th, and the adjacent external concreting is also finished. The new surface on courts 4 - 6 is being laid and completion is anticipated by Australia day, weather permitting. The remaining fencing and concreting should also be finished by then. The schedules for removal of the old light poles, and completion of the electrics, are yet to be confirmed but hopefully they will be all done by the end of the month.

December 2011

At the Christmas break, the project status is as follows:

All night tennis is now over for the year. Congratulations to the Tuesday and Wednesday winners:

Tuesday Men : Boom Boom (Adrian, Ryan, Jarryd, Daniel & David) outgunned the A Rods

Wednesday Mixed: Sedgeman (Kevin, Steven, Bev & Marie) were too good for Emerson

In the second week of the project, new light poles are up, as are the new fence posts, and the new retaining wall is done. Fences are now complete on courts 6 & 7, with new top and bottom rails. They look great!

Courts 8 & 9 will be unavailable for most of the week of December 5th, while the fences are upgraded.

Courts 4 - 6 after one day of the project....

November 2011

Congratulations to our Coach Peter Jenkins, who is currently listed at no. 3 in Australia in the Veterans Tennis rankings, and no.31 in the World (in his age group, of course). What's next Pete - the Aussie Open??

Night tennis is nearly finiahed for the year. Well done to our Grand Final winners:

Monday Ladies: Burberry (Bec, Alesha, Mandy and Cassie) had a comfortable win over Chanel

Thursday Mixed: Princes (Andrew, Haris, Michael, Cassie and Brittany) defeated Lotto's

Just a reminder that courts 4, 5 & 6 will be unavailable from December 1st, until around end January - see details below.

So we washed out Wednesday night tennis........

October 2011

The project to upgrade courts 4, 5 & 6 will begin on Thursday November 24th, when the retaining wall along court 6 will be demolished and rebuilt closer to the fence line. Court 6 will be unavailable during the day, but should be OK for night tennis and after hours use. Some electrical work for the new lights (which will not affect play) might start a little earlier.

Full work on the project will start on Thursday December 1st, from when the three courts will not be available for play. The fences will be removed and all the asphalt repairs, drainage and concreting will hopefully be done before the Christmas break, along with replacement fenceposts and lighting work. Resurfacing of the courts will begin on January 9th, with the aim of having everything finished before competition resumes after the holidays. Some equipment will be stored in a container in the car park, and some in the clubhouse.

The galvanised fences on courts 7 & 8 will probably be replaced in December, and those on courts 2 & 3 in January.

All of this will be very dependent on favourable weather of course, and the schedule is very tight for the contractors. Information will be updated here on the website as it comes to hand, and we apologise for any inconvenience.

Thanks to Peter and Lynn for such a great job (again!) running the Club Championships.Congratulations to our winners, and well done to the runners-up and all who competed. Hayley Gould won the Open Singles and Girls Singles for the third time, and James Dann repeated his 2010 wins in the Men's Open Singles and Boys Singles - both outstanding efforts.

We won two flags in the winter PTA Saturday competitions. Congratulations to Sean Dickson, Scott Ross and Tom Eddy for winning Mens Singles Sec 2. Tom finished the season unbeaten in his singles natches. Congratulations too to Dylan Brookes, Lance Cowan and Jamie Brookes for their win in Mens Singles Sec 4 - their second flag in a row. Well done also to Mixed Doubles Sec 3 and Mens Singles 4 for finishing runners-up.

The juniors had a lean season, and no teams made it through to the Grand Final.

August 2011

At the AGM on August 3rd, our outgoing Treasurer Robyn Mantel was thanked by the Committee for her outstanding contribution over the past 27 years. Janet Fraser has taken over as Treasurer, and we also welcome Paul Baker to the Committee.

A motion to raise the membership fees was passed. The increase is the first for two years, and was made necessary by increases in the Tennis Vic registration fees. The new fee structure can be seen in the Membership section of this website.

We're pleased to see that our courts upgrade project has been supported in this year's Council budget, and our intention is to execute the project over the summer break, starting in early December.

James had a big Grand Final day, also combining with Dylan Hebblethwaite to win the seniors Section 2 singles. Also victorious were the Section 6 Singles (Dylan Brookes and Lance Cowan), and Section 2 Mixed Doubles (Tracey Euhus, Bev Eddy, Brett Kidman and Tom Eddy). Congratulations.

March 2011

Saturday finals are underway, and we had a total of 20 Langy teams competing - 6 Seniors, 6 Girls and 8 Boys. Of these, four teams finished the regular season on top of the ladder. Four of the Senior teams have made it through to the Grand Final on Saturday April 2nd, as have three Girls and two Boys teams. Our Junior teams are playing at Frankston or Frankston East, and the Senior teams at Overport and Langwarrin (where our two Mens Singles 2 teams are fighting it out). Good luck to all!

February 2011

On Feb 7th we presented our case to Frankston Council, for financing of our courts 4-6 upgrade project to be included in the 2011-12 budget. We received a favourable hearing, but there's still a long way to go before we'll know if we have been successful.

Don't forget to submit your entries for the Winter season as soon as you can.

May 2010

At the Special General Meeting on 21st May, the members voted in favour of progressing the project to resurface courts 4 - 6, replace the lights and fences, and upgrade the drainage. It is the Committee's intention to seek financial assistance from Frankston Council rather than borrow the shortfall; however, the earliest that this would become available is in the 2011/2012 financial year, so the project is "on hold" until then.

With the night tennis season almost finished, it's time to think about playing in the Spring season which will start in early August for most nights. Click on Competitions above for the contact numbers of the organisers.

Don't forget the working bee on Sunday 30th - an hour or two of your time makes a big difference.

April 2010

Please note the change to the starting date for the Winter Saturday season (for both Seniors and Juniors). The PTA have introduced the changes so that Grand Finals for all sections can be played on the same day.

Also please note that a Special General Meeting has been scheduled for Friday 21st May, where the Committee will be seeking member approval to progress the upgrade project for courts 4, 5 & 6.

The April newsletter has been published, and there is a link at the bottom of the page to view it on line.
