Dumfries Sports Club understands that 2020 was a tough year and 2021 continues to be that way. The Club committee would like to thank all the members who have continued to support our club, even when they couldn’t take part in their main activity at their club.
We are now at the point of asking members to renew their memberships for 2021 and appreciate that a number of you will be apprehensive about this as your sport may not be allowed as yet. So, if you want to play tennis then please renew as soon as you can, if you are still happy to support your club and keep paying your Standing Order or full fee, then thank you very very much. Everyone else, we hope to see you very soon.

Guests (when they are allowed back at the club)
Once Covid restrictions ease, members are allowed to bring guests to the club for a game of squash or tennis, when booking a court with the one fob a £2 guest fee will be taken plus the normal court fee. All visitors who use the bar must sign the visitors book which is located in the bar. Members are not allowed to bring guests to the gym. We would also ask members to restrict the same guest to no more than 3 games of either squash or tennis per year. Anything above that then please get them to join on a Trial Membership or a membership.
