Why it’s worth it

One membership pays for itself quickly — a single away game with the guest fee waived, the reassurance of on-court insurance, a handicap that lets you enter tournaments and track your progress including your world ranking with an RTO profile (Zak or Sammy can show you the profile should you wish). Access to the BRTC booking system on line. Beyond that, your subscription funds the things that keep the game alive: protecting and restoring courts, training the next generation of professionals, and growing the junior game.
