Julie Leighton from the club said: “We have opened just court 1 to the north (nearest pavilion) and one at the south end (court 3) of the facility so that there is a fence separating people.”
Court 3 is available for public bookings via www.sleafordtennisclub.co.uk at £10.
The pavilion remains closed.
