If you're sure you will be joining our regular social sessions, feel free to purchase our social membership (which will be required after the taster sessions are over). Team membership should only be purchased once your place on one of our teams has been confirmed.After getting necessary membership, you need to book yourself a slot in order to be able to attend. Members are limited to one slot a week (we will adjust this according to the number of members. We release slots for the week usually on Tuesday or Wednesday and booking closes on Friday or when slots are full. Slots are booked on picktime. If the link does not work, then it has been taken down as we do the admin between sessions and weeks.Below are the rules for our sessions during this period of time:1. Turn up only at your designated slot. You will not be allowed in early or allowed to stay late. You should be let in at 5 past the hour and asked to leave at 5 to the hour. 2. Do not mingle with people outside of your slot or with other courts3. Play only singles at this point in time as doubles play has limitations4. Use the shuttles given to your court and do not take shuttles from other courts.5. Come ready to play as use of changing rooms is not allowed.6. Bring your own racket.
