The following statement has issued from Tennis Ireland:

The Republic of Ireland has moved to Level 5 status since midnight, Wednesday 21^st October.
The movement to Level 5 will have a significant impact on all activities in all clubs in the Republic of Ireland.
The main implications of Level 5 include the following:
Facilities should close with exceptions for:

• Structured outdoor coaching and training for school aged players under the supervision of a Designated Coach.
• Training for High Performance/Professional players

 
The restrictions mean that no other activities other than the exceptions outlined above can take place while Level 5 is active

This means that Puckane Tennis Club have had to close our facilities until otherwise advised.  We will be in touch as soon as we are updated.  In the meantime keep safe.
