WATLINGTON MEMORIAL CLUB

13 Nov 08

 

sports and social facilities for Watlington and surrounding communities

 

 

Watlington is a great place to live and work. It has all the best qualities of living in a small country town with historic buildings, superb Chiltern countryside, good local facilities and shops. At the heart of Watlington is the Watlington Memorial Club, and hidden behind it a treasure of sports facilities.


The Club boasts a membership of over 700 who make full use of the on-site sporting and games facilities - Tennis, Racquetball, Squash, Bowls, and Snooker. Inside the main building, we have the main Community Hall and kitchen and lounge/bars area which act as a social focus with services when required, for members, non members and for functions.

TENNIS NEWS

 

Claire Speirs and Gill Allen, two longstanding Committee members of the Watlington Tennis Club, have decided to take a break. Over the years the pair filled various club posts, Gill supervising Tournaments and Juniors while Claire handled membership which currently stands at 254, a record.

At the club’s recent AGM, their contributions were roundly acknowledged and, in thanks, the pair were presented with a bouquet of flowers and wine. The Committee itself was re-elected and Amanda Macrae takes over the duties of Membership Secretary
