Usage Rules

Courts are available for use by all members of the community. Please ensure they are left in a state ready for others to enjoy them, and keep our village clean by disposing of rubbish and chewing gum at home, or in a nearby bin. Please also respect both our neighbours and court users by not making excessive noise or causing distractions.

To report any maintenance issues please contact the Parish Clerk

In case of emergency, the nearest defibillator is at the Pavilion
