With Christmas fast approaching, here are a few things for the New Year.

American Doubles Tournament – Wednesday 1 January 2025
We could do with more entries for the annual New Year’s Day tournament, which will start at 1.00pm. It’s a fun way to start the new year. You play a game of mixed doubles for 15 minutes before everything changes – the court you play on, the opposing team, and even your doubles partner! All playing categories are welcome to take part, and the bar will be open for family and supporters, as well as afterwards for the competitors. Find out more here. Contact me for the link to book your place.

Christmas/New Year Quiz – Friday 10 January 2025
Dust off your thinking caps for the new year edition of our popular quiz night. Join regular host Jeff Richards for an evening of fun with family and friends – the bar will be open from 6.30pm with the quiz starting at 7.30pm. Book early to secure your place as numbers are limited to 8 teams.
You can enter as a team or an individual. To book please contact Jeff on 07769565095 or at jeff.richards@rcn.org.uk with your name and, if you are entering a team, your team’s name and the number of people in the team (max 6). Don’t worry if you can’t make up a team or would like to come on your own – Jeff will allocate you to a team on the night. Entry: Adults £3 – Children £2
