CLUB ‘TOPS’ during the 2015-16 season the Club introduced a new (blue) uniform top. These have proven to be very popular, see pictures of the new top on the Club’s website. www.karoritennis.co.nz/about/club-uniform/ The Premier interclub competition rules make it mandatory for all players to wear a uniform top and we encourage all interclub members, male and female, to do likewise. This is a great way to show team spirit and promote the club at the same time. The new tops will be available for all senior and midweek members to purchase and as encouragement to buy; your Committee has agreed to pay a contribution towards the cost of each top so the cost to members is just $30 ($20 for juniors). Please contact our Club Captain marc.piercey@gmail.com if you would like a top and also let him know your size.
