Allt Yr Yn LTC Clubhouse renovation

Aim

To modernise the clubhouse facilities at Allt Yr Yn lawn tennis club to improve the experience of players, their families and visitors.

Who are we?

We are a friendly and inclusive local community Tennis Club with great playing facilities, comprising 8 floodlit all weather tennis courts.

Why are we crowdfunding?

Our well used Clubhouse provides changing facilities for players, along with an upstairs viewing facility and members' bar and social space. As well as supporting tennis events, our Clubhouse is a focal point for community events, linked to the objective of the Tennis Club of providing a sustainable, long-term, high-quality tennis facility to the people of Newport and its surrounding area.

The Clubhouse has not been renovated since it was built in 1995 and is now in need of an update to modernise its facilities and offer more attractive facilities to our members and visitors. This will include improved changing room facilities for our female members and improved disabled access to our toilets.  

How we’ll spend the money raised

Our project will modernise our Clubhouse facilities, as shown below.

A broad breakdown of our expenditure will be:

table tennis entrance hall £10000

Ladies WC and changing room £15000

lobby (including trophies and Club history) £7500

bar £7500

upstairs meeting room and social area £20000

Project Cost £60000

less Club funding from balances already in place £15000

Balance of funding needed (inc match funding) £45000

Community impact

Our Club has provided inclusive tennis facilities to the people of Newport for almost 100 years and we have very active senior and junior sections, along with social members (including a very successful pool team that plays in Newport's local league).

Improving our facilities will be specifically targeted at female and disabled users but will also benefit all members of the Club, visitors and the local community by providing an improved space to support our on-court tennis activities and provide a related social hub for our community.

We will modernise our ladies changing facilities, including making accessible for the disabled.
