A word from the Chair
As the weather warms up, more and more members are coming out to play! Sadly the last 2 Wednesdays in Queen Square have been rained off, but numbers are increasing at Larkhall on Saturdays and Tuesdays.

Team Manager Notes
The singles ladder will start in April and runs through to September. It is a fun competition, open to everyone, and not too demanding. Email Mark if you would like to enter: mgbath_uk@yahoo.co.uk
