Chobham Lawn Tennis Club (Surrey) hold a fundraising day each year in support of a nominated charity. Nominations for which charity we as a club choose to support are put to our committee, who then decide on one. I am very pleased and extremely grateful to the club for choosing CRY this year. I have been a club member for 21 years and my daughter Claire was known to many of the players. Claire passed away due to congenital heart problems, aged 26 in January 2009. This year on August 7th it would have been her 40th birthday.
Chobham Lawn Tennis Club has members aged from preteens to octogenarians; all are welcome. We have a full programme each week, social play, inter club and league matches at all standards, along with many party events. The club has 3 all weather flood lit courts, with play 7 days a week. Club members provide all the catering and beverages for our party events, such as this charity day. Most of all though, we have a lot of fun and many laughs.
