OC Clubhouse '26 Upcoming Events

We're back — and so is the fundraising!

After a summer break, we’re ready to go again. From their sun loungers, this team of volunteers hasn't stopped thinking up new ways to give you a reason to contribute and donate.

Here's what's coming.

1. Team Velo Coletto — sponsored cycle ride: This SATURDAY
Monty (11) and Arlo (8) Coletto, are getting on their bikes to raise money for the clubhouse. They've already raised £2,250 in sponsorship from 52 members - we’d like to get them to £5,000.

If 100 members click on the link below and sponsor £20 each it will be rocket fuel for their efforts at the weekend.

This has to be the easiest way to contribute to the clubhouse fund. Let's make heroes of them - keep an eye on the club WhatsApp and Socials to follow their progress at the weekend.

2. The Family Tournament: September 12th
Format and sign-up details coming soon, but here's the plan: an end-of-summer fixture that brings young and old together on court — matchplay and fun competitions alike. Think Summer Fete meets Wimbledon. There'll be a BBQ, the bar will be open (for the grown-ups), and it'll be the best of the club on full display. Looking for a justification to donate: “It’s for the next generation!”

3. Tennis-a-thon: October 3rd - 4th
Dan Ajegbo's pipe dream is finally happening (thanks to his hard work): 96 players, 24 hours, 48 doubles pairs playing one hour each, non-stop — and one team must win.

Lots of ways to get involved: play (take the graveyard shift!), have a flutter guessing the final score or sponsor below. More details soon.

4. More tournaments incoming
Mid week: 8th September organised by Jean Sutton
Mixed Doubles: 26th September organised by Maria Szekely
Details to follow.

We call it fundraising but really we’re trying to create the social scene we want this club to have in the future. The new clubhouse is central to that: it will make a difference for every one of us, and we can't build it alone.
