Courts to be resurfaced in October 2024

Our two main courts are to be resurfaced in October. Work will start in the week beginning October 7 and should last no more than two weeks. The courts will be closed throughout that time. Following completion of the resurfacing work temporary lines will be put down and full repainting in the usual two shades of green will take place in spring 2025, when the weather is better for painting. The courts should be available for social play, matches and individual bookings from late October onwards.

It is around 20 years since the courts were last resurfaced and as anyone who has played recently will probably have noticed they are beginning to show their age with frequent irregular bounces.

This is an expensive, but necessary, job and has only been made possible thanks to generous donations from a number of members and a grant from the Yorkshire Dales Millennium Trust https://www.ydmt.org/ The work is being undertaken by the Pavescape company https://pavescapesportssurfaces.co.uk/ that created the Multi Use Games Area in 2017.
