🎾 Out with the old… in with the NEW! 🎾
A little glow-up has landed on the courts at Old Town Rec, and this one is stretched, strapped, clipped and ready for action.
Old Town Hub CIC and Set2Win are delighted to share that we’ve now installed 4 brand new tennis nets and straps across the courts. It might sound like a simple upgrade, but anyone who plays regularly will know that a proper net makes a huge difference. It sharpens up the court, improves the feel of every session, and gives the whole place that fresh “ready for battle” tennis energy.
The old nets had served their time. They’d taken thousands of rallies, coaching sessions, family hits, after-school battles, early morning cardios, windy winter sessions, summer tournaments, and probably more net-cord winners than anyone would care to admit. They’ve done their duty. But now it’s time for the new recruits to take centre court. 💪
These new nets are part of our continued commitment to keeping the facilities at Old Town Rec improving bit by bit, season by season. Every membership, court booking, coaching session and bit of support helps us keep reinvesting back into the courts and the wider community space.
It’s not always the huge projects that make the biggest difference. Sometimes it’s the details: a better net, a tighter strap, a cleaner finish, a court that feels cared for when you walk through the gate. That’s the standard we want people to feel when they come down to play.
A big thank you to everyone who books, plays, supports, coaches, volunteers, brings their children along, grabs a coffee after a hit, or simply believes in what we’re trying to build here. The courts are here for the community, and upgrades like this are only possible because the community keeps showing up.
So next time you’re down at Old Town Rec, enjoy the fresh net sparkle. Just remember, if your shot clips the tape and drops over, that’s not luck anymore… that’s “new net magic.” ✨
Game on. 🎾
