Dear Members,
The committee is now focused on recruiting new members to our club and we would like to double our current membership. The best way to achieve that goal is to invite all of our members to sign up a family member, friend, work mate or school friend to our club. And for a limited time we are waiving the joining fee.
In 2023 we are celebrating 60 years at Sassella Park, and we want to see as many members and new members on the courts enjoying our great game of tennis!
As an incentive, we will be offering 12 months family membership of our club via a draw to be held at the club at the end of this year. All members who sign up a new member will receive one (1) entry into the draw for every new member they sign up*. The more members you sign, the more entries into the draw you will receive.
If all our members sign just one new member, then we can achieve our goal of doubling our membership by the end of this year, which will provide additional funding to develope our tennis facilities at Sassella Park. Club membership application forms can be found on our website.
We look forward to seeing you all on the courts very soon!
Take care!
The Committee,
Deer Park Tennis Club Inc.

We are now planning to enter teams in the Autumn 2022 NSNTA night tennis season, subject to the ever changing Covid-19 regulations, which must be submitted to the association by 26th November, 2021. The Autumn 2022 season will start in February, 2022.
We invite you to advise the club if you intend to play next season before the 19th November, 2021, so that we can select our teams for submission to the NSNTA. Players that have paid their fees, $54 (first nine matches @ $6/match) will not need to pay. However, if you have not paid your fees, please make payment to our club bank account BSB 06 3253 A/c 1095 6580. Memberships can also be paid if they have expired. Team captains can email the club to let the club know if your team will be the same as registered for Spring 2021. Can you please discuss with your team mates? We may have new players forming teams or wishing to join a team, so our numbers are limited to six teams of five players each. Please note that we have received many enquiries about team tennis and demand will be strong. First in first selected. Please do not delay, or you may miss out.
The committee all look forward to our club fielding competition teams in 2022!
