Our flagship annual event – the MIA Open – is coming up this Saturday 7 June to Monday 9 June (King’s birthday long weekend).
It’s a wonderful 104-year-old tournament featuring players from all over Australia and caters to all levels from beginner to advanced. It includes fun social events like parent-child doubles and centenary doubles (where both players’ ages must exceed 100).
It’s usually sold out well in advance, so register here quickly – you can play in up to four events. Text Oliver on 0498843181 if you need help on how to enter (like a suggestion on which division might suit you best) or want to be matched up with a partner.
As a volunteer-run club, we rely on help from members to make this event a success.
This Sunday 4 May from 8.30 am we will be having a working bee to do some gardening, spread sand on courts, tidy up and repair some lines. It would be great if you could come along for a couple of hours to pitch in as many hands make light work.
Equipment is provided, but if you have a shovel or hammer, bring it along. Cake and morning tea will be provided, it’s a nice social morning and you can stay for as long as you like.
If you can’t make it Sunday, we’ll also be looking for volunteers to do two-hour shifts at the canteen and to help us set up over the long weekend, so if you could spare a couple of hours then it would then it would be most appreciated.
Please let me know if you could help out at our working bee or over the June long weekend and if you have any questions.
Thanks so much
