Locals and visitors to the Tilligerry region can now go online\nand make a booking, pay via debit or credit card and be on court within\nminutes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The club has\nwaited a considerable period of time to get their online booking system\noperational but the gift has arrived just in time for the Summer. To make a\nbooking customers log onto <a href=\"https:\/\/play.tennis.com.au\/tilligerrytennisclub\/Admin\/CourtHire\">https:\/\/play.tennis.com.au\/tilligerrytennisclub\/Admin\/CourtHire<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tilligerry\nTennis Club President Ruth Hack, is delighted to see the system available to\nthe community to allow automated access without volunteers needing to handle\nkeys. An added bonus for the club is that the system records player contacts\ndetails which will allow the club to invite social tennis participants to be\ninvited to club activities that are planned to be hosted in 2021. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Club Coach James\nBellette and his program participants loved the ease of access from the keypad\nlocking system on the first morning of activities through the new access\nsystem. James said he is \u201cglad that he can now access the lights automatically\nduring the winter months without having to get a committee member down to the\nfacility to turn them on\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2020 has been a\nvery good year for the club with major works being completed to upgrade the\nclubhouse and outdoor undercover area early in the year before the COVID-19\npandemic hit and stopped activities for a month. The club members were keen to\nstay healthy and safe so adopted the Tennis NSW Community Play Guidelines and\ncommenced their weekly program activities with really strong participation numbers\nthroughout the year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tilligerry forms\na major area for tourist activities over the festive season so the club is\nanticipating that the new system will help enhance the venue usage and bring\nmuch needed additional funding into the facility to build a practice hitting\nwall and a junior Hotshots court later in 2021. Juniors in the area love tennis\non a Saturday morning and the committee\u2019s plan is to ensure that facilities are\navailable for the junior\u2019s development and also have accessibility options\navailable for families to use the facility at any time of the year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The committee would like to thank Port Stephens Council for allowing the online booking system upgrade and their electricians assistance with the instillation. Also, they\u2019d like to thank Tennis Australia and Tennis NSW staff for their ongoing assistance to get the system operational during the COVID-19 pandemic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Get in touch with your local Tennis Development Officer to find out more &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis.com.au\/nsw\/about-us\/meet-the-team\/staff\">https:\/\/www.tennis.com.au\/nsw\/about-us\/meet-the-team\/staff<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tilligerry Tennis Club launch the third Tennis Australia Book a Court System in the Port Stephens region.
