EMTC are very pleased to advise that the tennis courts will now reopen for Member play only, court bookings required.
The reason we haven't opened sooner is that we needed to meet Stonnington's requirements.
We are under the same conditions as when we were last locked down - "10 patrons at the facility at one time". At this point we will not be able to accomodate guests.
Whilst we are very excited to get Members back on court, we need to remain vigilant in ensuring the Club remains a safe and healthy environment for all Members. The COVID-19 situation is a dynamic one and all precautions need to be taken to ensure that we can continue to operate the tennis club with minimal risk.

Our Hours of Operation will be Monday to Sunday: 8.00am to 10.00pm
- The Clubhouse remains CLOSED.
- Toilets will be open, and regularly cleaned.
- Showers & change areas are not to be used.
- All outdoor chairs/bench seats are not to be used.
- Please play your tennis and then leave the Club.
COURT BOOKINGS:
As previously advised via bulk email we will be using the new ClubSpark "Book A Court" system. Simple to use instructions can be found here: https://eastmalverntc.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/EMTC-BOOK-A-COURT-Instructions.pdf
Please note: – ALL court bookings after 7.00pm will require payment of the $12 per hour Light Fee. This will be charged within your Book A Court booking. Refunds will be given for washouts. The lights will be turned on ready for your booking.
IMPORTANT: at no time should you interrupt/call out to a coach mid lesson and ask them to turn the lights on.
Coaching will also resume this afternoon and Futures Tennis Academy will be in touch with their clients seperately.
