Tennis Courts
There are two synthetic all weather tennis courts available to use at Pulpit Point by PPHOA residents and their guests.
Both of the courts were renovated in 2013 and undergo a service every six months, to machine hard broomed and remove the top layer of sand, then reinstate the sand and add extra if required, to ensure the grass strands are remaining in a vertical position to maintain a consistent bounce.
The courts are for daytime use only.
Bookings for the courts can be made by simply writing in the tennis diary, which is kept inside the weatherproof box inside the courts near the net of court # 1. Bookings are not to be further ahead than 2 weeks.
