Updated Constitution May 2022

Date: May 12, 2022

We have received updated guidance from our sporting bodies and the Government that clarifies that  

• Junior training / coaching (Children of school going age are permitted to train) for both Tennis and Boating.  
• Unless deemed essential ALL facilities must close. Accordingly, our shed must now close also.  

Apologies for the changes and rather frequent updates, but we are simply reacting to the guidance from our Sporting representative associations and from Sporting Ireland and the Government. We are passing it on as soon as we possibly can in what is a very fluid situation.  

In the meantime, stay safe and if you need assistance, please just call. We have volunteers just ready to help.  

Regards,

Enda Murphy, Commodore

FURTHER CHANGES TO RESTRICTIONS FROM TENNIS IRELAND

Despite the guidance on Club activities provided last night and this morning, unfortunately I must report a significant change. 

Tennis Ireland have amended their instructions and requested all Clubs to suspend ALL Tennis activities. This includes junior coaching.

At this time guidance on boating remains unchanged. 

The situation is fluid and the Sporting Ireland expert group is meeting later today so we may see further changes. 

The Management Committee will endeavour to keep you up to date.  

Yours sincerely

Enda Murphy

Commodore
