Thompson Club
BGS Friends of Tennis
The Thompson Club is a supporter group for all current tennis players and their families, as well as Old Boys, Past Parents, Staff, and others interested in tennis at BGS.
Background
BGS tennis has a long and proud history. The School archives note that by the late 1880s, tennis was an integral part of the sports program.
At BGS today, tennis remains the largest participant sport in the School.
Our overarching goal is to ensure that all players, at all levels, enjoy their experience of this great sport and have the opportunity to progress their individual game to the highest level of which they are capable. In addition, the purpose of the Thompson Club is to:
- Promote the sport of tennis at BGS
- Improve the standard of tennis across the School
- Assist the School to implement the best tennis program possible
- Undertake fundraising activities and provide additional financial support for program development and equipment
- Provide opportunities for members to socialise
Membership is for life and requires only a one-off membership fee
