COVID 19 Update 9/6/2020

To all members, parents and children, 

Over the weekend Tennis Queensland was successful in acquiring an exemption for tennis from the State Government. This means that there will be some more lenient rulings going forward. 

The changes that have been made are in effect as of Wednesday 10th June 2020 and are as follows:

Court Hire 

  1. All court hire groups under 20 people are accepted. No more than 10 people per court. Bookings are available between 6am – 11pm, 7 days a week. You can make a booking online on our website www.sandgatetennis.com.au or over the phone 3269 7783. All permanent bookings will be reinstated. 
  2. There is now a designated seperate entry and exit. Entry will be through the gate at court 1, and the exit through the gate at court 5. No entry or exit through back gate at court 6 & 8. There will be clear signage displayed at each gate.  
  3. There is to be no co-mingling between court hire groups, there will be clearly signed designated areas for each court. 
  4. We understand that most court hire groups bring their own tea, coffee etc. We are only allowing the use of the tea and coffee provided by Sandgate Tennis, including styrofoam cups. No mugs. 
  5. All court hire groups are not permitted to stay after their booking time. Everyone must leave at the end of their booking. Clear signage will be displayed to help enforce this. 
  6. All players must sign in on the registers provided in each clubhouse. 

Coaching 

  1. All lessons will be back to group and squad coaching (including Wednesday night adult lesson 6:30-8pm). No Friday Fixtures or Wednesday Hot Shot Fixtures at this time. 
  2. All coaching groups will be 3 children per court to minimise numbers where possible. 
  3. All coaching children will have to be signed in and out on the registers provided. 
  4. There is now a designated seperate entry and exit. Entry will be through the gate at court 1, and the exit through the gate at court 5. No entry or exit through back gate at court 6 & 8. There will be clear signage displayed at each gate. 
  5. All children are to be dropped off and picked up as close to their lesson time as possible to limit people hanging around. 

General Rules 

  1. All social distancing rules still apply. There will be clear signage around the premises to help enforce this. 
  2. All people using the facility MUST sign in and out on registers provided. 
  3. Anyone feeling unwell are not permitted to enter the premises at any time. Staff has the authority to refuse anyone with symptoms entrance if needed. 
  4. COVID SAFETY COORDINATORS – BRETT PLANT & KYLE DENNIS – ANY PROBLEMS WHILE UNSTAFFED PLEASE CALL 0418 726 346 OR 0452 452 004. 

We would like to thank everybody for their patience through these last few months. We look forward to seeing you all on court again. 

With Thanks, 

Sandgate Tennis Coaching Team.
