We are delighted to be starting RLTC's BBQ season up in 2 weeks! We welcome volunteers and foodies to think about some ideas and book a theme for every bi-weekly BBQ. This can be anywhere from Hawaiian theme to Potluck and even theme the night around international dishes as well! We would love your kitchen contributions or for everyone to get together and enjoy an evening of BBQ'ing and tennis, in the RLTC fashion. We will be kickstarting our BBQ lineup with tacos and tequila, including some vegie options and tasty margaritas so get your sombreros and join the fiesta Thursday July 14th. Tickets will be on sale next week!

Men's Doubles Tournie Starts July 7th

Men's Doubles Tournament is fast approaching and sign up ends July 3rd. Grab a partner and sign on our tournament portal via our website HERE!

We are already filling up quickly so spaces are limited.

After an exciting women's doubles tournament, we can't wait to see what our players will bring to the courts this year!

We have so much talent and heart and it would be amazing to see our members come and enjoy some live tennis and with a glass of wine or a cold beer.

We will also be playing Wimbledon on the TV's inside the clubhouse so never a dull moment over here!

Court Maintenance progress

As many of you know, we had a rough start with the clay court upkeep, especially as the hard courts were under repair and clay courts were seeing double the traffic as usual. That being said, we were aware that this impacted the state of the courts drastically. We are happy to announce that we have tackled some staffing issues and brought on some new members to add to our already fantastic crew to help prep courts in the mornings and maintain a high standard of grooming.

Ball Machine Info

and help request

Our ball machine is waiting for someone to wake her up from her state of rest, however every youtube video on this thing is outdated and showcases different models. We are eager to get it rented but members hoping to use it will have to train ad hoc and this is really going to take a group effort to get this process going. If anyone has any tips on how to use the Silent Partner ball machine, please come forward and help us out or send info our way at info@rltennis.ca. We will be renting it out at $15/hr and hope to get lots of action out of this thing for the remainder of the summer. Thank you!

Player Sign-Up Sheet

We are noticing that there are a few members interested in hitting the ball socially with other members, but may not have the time in their busy schedules to hang out and ask people to play, so we will be hanging up a sign-up sheet for those looking for partners to play casually and meet new people. Ask one of our clubhouse staff. Don't forget to check out our social media for weather and club updates!

HAPPY CANADA DAY!

From all of us at the the RLTC clubhouse and on behalf of our board of directors, we would like to wish you all a safe and Happy Canada Day! We will be open during regular hours and hope to see everyone celebrating our beautiful country safely and responsibly. Don't forget to stay hydrated and see you on the deck or the courts!

Warmly,

Hélène Anido and co.
