WTC Court Project - Week Two

Week two of the WTC Tennis Court Project is now complete and it has been another busy one, continuing to focus on ground works.

 


 

Root barriers have gone in and been infilled, along with the stoning of all areas that have been dug out.  Kerbs have been finished and haunching is underway.








In addition to the work on the courts themselves, a number of trees have been cleared from the side of the path to the courts, and the stumps have been ground out this week.  This has left us a wonderful, large space, which will be an exciting future project for fundraising and planning.  All members, who would like to, will be able to get involved with creating and maintaining this great social and practical space for all of us to enjoy.

 





 

Have your say!

Now it is time for us to come up with a short-list of colours for our courts.  Please follow the link below to select your favourite; the most popular choices will go into a short-list for the final round of voting.
