Tennis South Africa (TSA) and The Club Management Association of Southern Africa (CMASA) are pleased to announce that they have embarked on an exciting new Fellowship in the club industry.
Both Member Clubs of Tennis SA and the Club Management Association of Southern Africa overlap extensively, and by working together TSA and CMASA believe they can assist club managers and their staff to create well informed and future proof clubs.
The aim of the Fellowship is to create synergy for all clubs to have access to the latest TSA Updates, Information & Resources, and to encourage them to join CMASA to gain access to club specific education through CMASA’s Education, Training and Compliance offerings.
TSA CEO Richard Glover: ‘’We believe CMASA is a vital part of the club industry, and their education and training programmes can assist tennis clubs in elevating their individual value propositions, in order to retain current members and critically to attract new ones as well. Tennis in South Africa is seeing an upsurge in participation, and we believe this new fellowship with CMASA can only be good for the game at club level.”
CMASA CEO Roxanne Reeves: ‘’We look forward to building a long-lasting fellowship with Tennis SA and we are committed to holding hands with the clubs while we ensure their training, education and compliance needs are taken care of through our all-inclusive education membership module that we launched in March 2021.’’
