Staying Safe at BTC

​

16/10/2020

 

Dear Parents/Players,

 

As I'm sure you're aware, all London boroughs will be subject to new local restrictions (Tier 2) as of midnight this Friday. Whilst these restrictions do not impact the continuation of our Tots, Mini and Junior lessons (U18s), they do impact Adult tennis and court bookings. 

 

We are working hard to implement the changes needed to ensure we continue to work within the regulations set by Government. Please see the changes listed below.

​

Please find below, the LTA's summary of what activity is permitted at each of the different tier levels. 

 

Many thanks,

James (Centre Manager)
