Here comes the sun…

Our committee room now has new blinds to complete the lounge like ambience!

Committee Room Refurb

Our newly refurbished committee room now is set up ready with our new chairs in place for our members to use as a lounge once indoor socialising becomes possible again. 

Green shoots of hope

Our cherry tree is now in full blossom, and the sun is shining – as we return to outdoor sport.

New look committee room!

“During this last lockdown ESC has been making further progress on clubhouse refurbishment. Tennis section member Paul Fielding has decorated our committee room, which also now has new tables in readiness for when we can finally open!”

When One Door Closes…

Our new committee doors, installed by Lee of SE Countrywide Doors Ltd, & polished by one of the members of our bowls section, are now finished. We shall look forward to using them when the clubhouse re-opens!

Getting the word out!

Let us know if you see any of our members out and about displaying their brand new Ember Sports Club car stickers!

Assisted by a generous #SurreyMCA grant, sponsored by Cllrs Peter Szanto & Nick Darby, Ember Sports Club has new security shutters, replacing the broken ones.

Once we can re-open the bar, we invite members & their guests to celebrate this attractive new installation by Tri Door!
