Apologies for quality - I felt slightly sheepish about taking a photo of it so it was done covertly as it were. By my reckoning, 71% of their 104 members are over 50, and 46% are over 60. I spoke to one of their guys about this and he was dismissive - ‘most tennis clubs have that age profile’ was the gist of his response. Hmm.
