We appreciate that parking is an issue, especially during our busy times, and as you know as a Club we are trying to do what we can to ease the pressure.

However, we do need you to be mindful of the fact that we have a number of Members who need the extra parking space provided by a disabled bay, and who also need to be parked in close proximity to the Club.

We will be issuing tickets to all those parked in the disabled parking and not displaying their Blue Badge.

May's topic is "How we grow", and we will be making height charts and drawing pictures of ourselves. We will also be learning how we are different from our friends e.g. eye colour and hair colour.

Let your children enjoy fun-filled times with our Crèche team.

Book at Reception!

Why not drop your children off at your Club for a while, so you can do your shopping without them becoming bored. An hour and a half for you to do that weekly shop!

Available to all Members, and bookable at Reception or online.

Jimmy is running a back care clinic up in the Gym, starting this month, at 9.30am every Saturday morning for an hour. All Members with any back pain or weakness in that area are welcome!

Ross and Tom will be running a Cross-Fit Conditioning Workshop on the Gym floor for all Members of a higher fitness level, or those who like to be pushed. Tom and Ross are both Strength and Conditioning Coaches and are keen to get this workshop off the ground.

It will be held on Wednesdays at 6.30pm for one hour.

Collingwood Sound & Vision Tennis Tournament returns after last year's success.

Don’t miss out on a great day with fantastic prizes.

It runs on Sunday 13th May. Entry forms are available at Reception. Ask Tennis Tom for more details.

The May courses will start on Saturday 12th at 12.45pm, and Tuesday 22nd at 1.30pm and 8.30pm.

The courses cost £32 per person and all sessions are an hour long.

Pilates classes can be booked and paid for at Reception.

The Latin dance we have in May is the Jive, which will start on Monday 21st May at 8.30pm.

This is a four-week course costing £32.

Dance classes can be booked and paid for at Reception.

These classes are in addition to our regular timetable, and incur a charge payable to the instructor. We find these are very popular with our Members and guests, who find it very convenient to come to their regular Club to do additional activities.

We are finding that although we have Members wanting to attend classes, if they are fully booked they do not want to turn up just in the hope that they might get a space in the class, even though on the day many Members do not appear for the session.

Our terms and conditions state the following:

If a class is not cancelled (no show) or is cancelled with less than 24-hours' notice for three times or more in any three-month period, the Member will lose their advance booking rights for a period of one month.

Initially we will be sending out letters to those who don’t turn up for classes they have booked more than three times in a single month. However, if the situation does not improve, we will be implementing the system of taking away the right to book.

Classes can be cancelled by phone or online.

Don't miss out on the fun, and the prizes up for grabs. £3 per person, including free nachos.

Don't forget you can bring non-Members down as well. See you all there.

Come and join us at the Club for a football-themed BBQ – and enjoy the FA Cup match live at the Club – on Saturday 5th. And then enjoy our May Day BBQ on Monday 7th.

Weather permitting.
