Presentation Evening
Last night we held our Annual Presentation Evening at Sutton Golf Club, another great event organised by Anwen, with as usual much support from others (not least Pete for ensuring all the trophies were sparkling!) Sue H gave a fantastic send off to Steve M, who is now living in Wales, he has been a huge influence on making BTC the success it is, as well as being the "ball monitor". He will be greatly missed, but we are assured he will be making a few guest appearances to keep in touch with us. Jan was also able to announce that Flair Windows has agreed to sponsor the club and more specifically Winter League. This will mean that we can revert back to the original cost of the tokens for the floodlights countering the huge increase in the cost of the electricity to the club. Thanks must be given to Steve Hughes for being able to arrange for this deal through his contacts! |

In preparation for the start of play as we come out of the Covid restrictions, we've had the bottom courts treated for moss and brushed, while the top courts have undergone a major makeover and have been cleaned and repainted.
We've also had some great publicity through Will Thorley and local radio, with interviews with our members. Thanks to those contributing and getting up early for the interview! |

18th October 2018 |
We held another successful Annual Presentation Evening on Saturday 18th October with many of our club winners receiving their trophies. We also held a raffle and quiz in support of a local group Rowangarth Day Centre that has operated in Erdington since 2008, providing a high level of services for adults with a disability or learning difficulties. They also provide care for adults with Early Onset Dementia and more importantly support to one of our former members. We were delighted to raise £240 and present the cheque to Chris Braniff |
