HEALTH & SAFETY

Whangaparaoa Tennis Club is conscious of the health & safety of your children, when attending junior tennis sessions. Whangaparaoa Tennis Club coaches are regularly police vetted and are familiar with the Tennis NZ Participant Protection Policy, to protect the health, safety and well-being of those who participate in tennis activities. 

• When on court, your children are under the supervision of the club coaches. They are required to follow the coaches’ instructions. 
• When your children are not on court, i.e outside the courts, in the clubhouse or in the carpark, then they are not under the coaches’ supervision and parents are responsible for their supervision.
• Please do not allow you children to play in the carpark, or leave the premises unsupervised. When in the clubhouse, children are not permitted in the kitchen, the bar or to touch the AED (defibrillator)
• If an incident occurs, on or off court, then please inform a club coach and an incident report must be filled out.

INVOICES / PAYMENT

• You will be invoiced for the  entire duration of the particular tennis programme.
• Invoices will be sent to you via email.
• If you qualify for a family discount we will amend your invoice accordingly.
• We ask that invoices are paid by the due date listed on the invoice. 
• Whangaparoa Tennis Club reserves the right to remove your child from a programme, if payment has not been received.

CANCELLATIONS & ABSENSES 

• There will be no weather related cancelled sessions during our summer programme (Terms 4 & Term 1). In the event the weather prevents play on court, our club coaches will conduct an indoor session, including technique, drills, tactics etc.
• Sessions outside of our summer programme (e.g. winter coaching, school holiday programme, Hot Shots under5's) may be postponed or cancelled due to weather. If possible  catch-up sessions will be provided by the club coaches.
• If COVID lockdowns prevent the club from providing junior coaching sessions, then credits / refunds will be provided.
