Sorry Alfredo, you are mixing things up, we had bad brushes before those are taken away & I was the one that identified the problem with why the gravel around the lines where badly damaged, you where just complaining...when we have a bad sprinkler if people tell us we fix it! if the sprinklers are only used night time then we will not know if they work properly, that has always been the case.. I personally do not get your comments here.. we are all helping out here as members..& if there are any additional costs that might affect our members, we cannot demand that from members in the midst of a season. before the next season we will definitely evaluate improvements and inform all members of why we are recommending doing those. As said numerous times now, we appreciate that you inform us immediately when something does not work and we act upon those issues fixing them asap.

I dont understand why to wait for next season problems should be taking as soon as possible.
I care for the courts and want to play without need to fix the lines before playing even i have fixing the lines for others. As people can see after raining the courts are much better because this is what the courts need water.
I have another option make an schema with the members and let do the work for a day at the courts it shouldnt be so difficult.

automatic irrigation systems we will continue to use as the club has invested a lot in the system. Of course, there should be no puddles for a spreader to get stuck, we on the board have to solve that. As you say below, it is important that everyone is helped if a spider is disturbed, the problem is that they only go at night and then no one sees if a spider is disturbed.

Hello, interesting proposal - that needs to be addressed for next season!
Meanwhile, today we have 2 options - people watering after play, that is not done & sometimes not done correctly or just inform when the automatic sprinkler system does not work and someone from the board shuts it of, which works like charm - when we are informed!

I am a memberof the tennis club in Hjorthagen but I haven’t been active yet this summer for various reasons. I read about all the troubles with the court though, and as a non specifically qualified person to take care of them I think that Alfredos suggestion would be good: ” Every member need to do a day work for free at the tennis club in hjorthagens should be at the courts. If someone cant come the day that should need to work free then he will pay for someone else member that do the work. In Holland you pay your day off for 35 euros.”

I wouldn’t mind paying 35 euros for the courts being well taken care of so we all can play without a lot of problems. I understand that the club itself doesn’t have the money for it, but if we all agree to this solution presented by Alfredo it would save us all these seemingly never ending troubles?

Could we vote about it or how could we take this question further?

You are very welcome to stand there every day and every second hour to water,
but until that day we will do the second best mate & automate it.. left side is shut down for now. Many thanks for that info!

Close the water spring installation on court one on the left side.
Will be better to close all of them because it doesnt work.
The best way to give water to the courts is manually.

Alfredo, would you mind telling which side of the court that the sprinkler is malfunctioning?
Personally I am in Slovenia now, but can shut down remote on the one that does not work until someone locally cleans the sprinkler! so it starts to work properly again..

Maybe an idea ,when I was member of the tennis club in Holland non profit tennis club
Every member need to do a day work for free at the tennis club in hjorthagens should be at the courts.
If someone cant come the day that should need to work free then he will pay for someone else member that do the work.
In Holland you pay your day off for 35 euros.

Good evening
Today I was fixing the lines before to start to play and the water spring installation went on.
The water spring installation on court number 1 doesnt work proper and either on the other court the court become a small water pool.
After we have been telling players to give water to the court manual it is not a good idea to start to use the water spring installation again.
I dont understand why isnt possible to have an student to be there the whole day and take care of the courts.
The courts need water the whole day because there is to much clay on it and the water spring installation isnt the right thing.
