All tennis courts are now open. Players should attend in groups no larger than 6. If there are more than 6 players, you will need to prove that all members are from 2 (max) different households.
Blackheath and Eltham Park South tennis courts will need to be booked in advance, for all other courts, you can turn up and play on a first-come-first-served basis.
Social distancing guidelines are:
-
Stay at least two metres away from other players at all times (including during play, when taking breaks and before and after play)
-
Do not make physical contact with other players (such as shaking hands or a high five)
-
Stay on your side of court and avoid changing ends, or agree to change ends at opposite sides of the net
For further important information on tennis court guidelines, please refer to the Lawn Tennis Association Guidelines
