Walker Wylie West End Tennis Tournament

Dear Tennis member,

We are writing to invite you to enter the West End Tennis Tournament.

The online closing date is 20th July at 10 am so it would be great if you could enter ON TIME and ON LINE!!

You can enter online here and more content will be added to: http://glasgowwestern.us10.list-manage.com/track/click?u=cee3d74b0a207fcf83d28a235&id=ffa22aadbc&e=07bc46fe77
which also gives a brief synopsis of what we plan to do i.e. run it more flexibly over a month with scheduled ties from the quarters or semi finals onwards (depending on size of the draw).

So although the closing date is 20th July, early ties would be played flexibly over the first 2 - 3 weeks in August with quarters/ semi final ties scheduled in the 10 days or so leading up to Finals Day.

Finals Day will be at HILLHEAD on Saturday 27th August and the scheduled ties from the semis will be at Western and Hillhead. The JUNIOR events will be SCHEDULED and run over the weekend of the 19/20/21 August with Finals Day also on 27th August.

Walker Wylie are a new online estate agency who are kindly sponsoring the event. Information about them can be found here: http://glasgowwestern.us10.list-manage.com/track/click?u=cee3d74b0a207fcf83d28a235&id=8863c0a2f3&e=07bc46fe77

Best wishes,

The Organising Team (Keith/Simon/Julie)

Free buffet and see Murray beat Raonic at the club!

As promised Caffe Parma will be offering a free buffet from 1pm - 1.45pm on Sunday  (for members) in the members bar to celebrate Andy Murray winning Wimbledon for the 2nd time! Maybe not as Raonic is looking good but here's hoping........ This will be a selection of starters and some pizza slices and all you have to do is buy some drinks at the bar! If possible please let me know if coming for the buffet to help the kitchen with an idea of numbers? ian@glasgowwestern.co.uk

The concept of Walker Wylie was born out of our experience working as Area Directors for one of Scotland’s leading independent Estate Agencies. We understand the advantages of both the high street and online Estate Agents, so have decided to introduce a unique hybrid business model that combines the key aspects of both and provides traditional values with online convenience. And by removing the expensive overheads associated with a high street presence we are able to offer fantastic value with a fixed selling fee of £595 plus VAT and a marketing fee of only £150 plus VAT to advertise your home. We are focused on providing an exclusively “Sales” service to clients throughout Glasgow, with a particular focus on the West End and South Side, where both Company Directors live and work. http://walkerwylie.co.uk For all tournament details click HERE Collect your old racquets A new frame with some old tennis & squash racquets will be displayed on the wall in the members bar this week. If you donated an old bat and it isn't in the display please collect it from the office or let me know that you would like it donated to charity. Many thanks to all who handed in their relics and apologies if yours wasn't chosen to be in the display!
