The Men’s team in Div 5 are on the cusp of promotion after last week’s opponents, Ecclesall C surprisingly conceded the match on Friday evening. T his now leaves the team in second position in Div 5 with one game left – an away match on Saturday the 4th July against Barnsley D. Best wishes to all those players and hope we have something to really celebrate.
The S & D Men’s team won again on Saturday 20th June with a convincing 7-2 win. Despite losing just one match the team stand in third position with a worse sets won percentage compared to the top two teams which are Barnsley C and Thorncliffe B . Two matches remain – Ecclesall C at home on Saturday 27th June and then Barnsley D away on the 4th July. Lets hope one of the other teams slips up enough and we win to edge into second or first place.

Here are the key dates for your diary for this 2026 season.
All members, especially our new members.
Just to let you know that during the school holidays from 1st April and 2nd April and 7th -10th April there may be Active Summer Camp activities using the Sports and Social Club outdoor facilities, including the tennis courts. It runs from 8.00 until 5.00 pm each day. This WILL NOT prevent members from playing during the day.
They will not be using the courts all the time.
If you arrive and there are children on the courts let the Supervisor(s) know and they will move the children to ensure members can play. They will not affect the Ladies Friday afternoon social sessions either. Any problems let Mick Mason know on 07891096164.
The Active Summer Camp activities tie in with the aims and objectives of the Sports and Social Club and some members and their young children fhave joined the club as a result of attending the camps.

The Sports Club has to do a full re-wire of the Memorial Hall electrics. Unfortunately this means the floodlights and electrics to our’s and the bowls club’s pavilions is going to be unavailable until further notice. Thankfully the nights are lighter now and it will continue to stay light longer. The Sports Club committee have already got a plan to address the issues but it won’t be a quick fix. National Gid are going to attend to do work on the 16th April so no connection work can take place before then.
Updates will be posted on this site.
