how does one go about booking the tennis courts ?.
probably by ringing ancholme leisure centre and getting the 4 digit code for the locks,,
all well and good so after your session do you leave gate unlocked for others to use free. book one court but use two ?,it's open to abuse as the old courts were.
easy to get an magnetic lock fitted get card from ancholme leisure centre with a deposit which you get back on return.
Good question, Pete.
The article talks about 'supervised events', but how does me and me girlfriend book a court for a casual knock-about?
As old wrinklies we are very forgetful and could quite easily leave the access unlocked.....inviting both free use and vandalism....
