Seaton Tennis Club resumed socially distant tennis as the lockdown lifted this week.

Three of the club's courts were resurfaced during the enforced absence including a brand new astro turf court, already christened by some members, 'The Paddling Pool'.

The spectacular blue and green combination brings the club right up to date with 21st century tennis court design.

Club Chairman Simon Prior said: "This is a really exciting development for the club and members are already enthusing about it.

"Despite all the restrictions, the club has prospered over the 2020 season and welcomed many new members of all abilities.

"We seem to have more people playing more often than ever; I suppose Covid 19 has restricted so many other leisure pursuits. We're just very fortunate that the impact for us has been pretty limited.

"So, why not dust off the trainers and the old racquet (or we can lend you one) and come along for a game some time?

"For just £3, we have a non-members dedicated Rusty Racquets and Adult Beginners session every Saturday from 2pm to 5 pm when anyone can give it a go in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

"And for juniors, we have a comprehensive coaching programme to which new youngsters are always welcome."
