Junior Team Tennis
We need as many players as possible in the U14 and U16 age group in order to enter teams in these leagues this year. We may also be entering the more relaxed Harrogate League where team members can range from 8 to 16 (the team of 5 are matched to the opposition by agreement of the two team managers involved). This is really a friendly league although the kids certainly play to win!
The under14 and under 16 junior team contact is Katharine Brown (0113 2892495).
In the meantime please remember that on THURSDAY EVENINGS the courts are for Juniors only so PLEASE USE THEM.

WEB DESIGN
Website designed and produced by Adrian Lobley (AJGL1@aol.com )
Production time: Approx 100 hours
Software used: Microsoft Publisher
Launch Date: 31 October 1999
The first Bardsey Tennis Club website design was created in the summer of 1999, made
up of yellow type on a green hedge-
The omission of the logo however proved very unpopular in certain quarters! The site was scrapped and then rebuilt using the primary colours of red and yellow of the logo (Version 3). The process averaged out at 30 minutes every night from July 1999 to January 2000 and was carried out as a hobby in the authors spare time.
The site first appeared on the web on 31 October 1999 at www.bardseytennisclub.8m.com. The '8m' in the name was compulsory as the URL had been acquired through Freeservers who insisted upon it. Another drawback was that Freeservers placed an advert on every page of the site.
At the end of January 2000, the URL of www.bardseytennisclub.co.uk was acquired, with no outside adverts.
The site was upgraded to Version 4 in April 2002. Version 4 is a lot less frame heavy which enables easier uploading. The design of the site was changed from a high colour content to a mainly plain white site. The main reason for the change though was to enable easier navigation for users. Most information can be reached with just one click.
Due to software deficiencies there has been a problem with pictures not appearing on the site. The index page has therefore had to be changed with the pictures removed. The change was sufficient to warrant the change from V4.12 to V5.01 in March 2005.
In March 2008 the site was totally redesigned using Webplus SE instead of Microsoft Publisher. This version became 6.1. Only 10 pages are available using this software without having to pay a fee so the site was compacted considerably
We will be organising extensive junior coaching, we will finalise details at a later date.
Adults and juniors
can book lessons direct with either coach.
