Renovation tennis park has started
The long-awaited renovation of the clay courts will start next winter. The following activities are planned: - Replacement of the almost 50 year old fencing - Replacement of the park entrance gate
Changing rooms on the shovel
We will start renovation work on the changing rooms on 30 November at an accelerated pace, partly due to the current corona restrictions. The layout of the rooms changes completely. The ladies' and men's dressing room will soon be located next to a new corridor that gives the bar a short route to the billiards center. For billiards this will be a new entrance, the old entrance will be closed.
Temperature and ventilation in the billiard center
We don't tell the regular visitors of the billiard center anything new: in the summer the billiard center is often too hot. Problems arise if the outside temperature rises above 20 degrees. At even higher outside temperatures, the inside temperatures are correspondingly higher.
Outdoor tennis in wintertime
Outdoor courts 1 to 4 will remain available from November 1, 2020. These courts will remain open until planned work on the courts and fencing starts. This will be reported on this website in time. Even with (moderate to severe) frost, the courts become permanently unplayable. In that case we will also make this known
