The Albury AGM will be held at the centre on Tuesday evening. Albury is kept open by local volunteers in partnership with Sport Aberdeen, the committee is always looking for new people and new ideas moving forward and is especially suited to people living nearby in the Ferryhill area.
Sport Scotland is doing research on club members physical activity. For every survey completed the club is entered into a prize draw for sports equipment, so if you have 10 minutes to spare, have a look at https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/FNTF3L3< br>
A reminder that the deadline for club members to opt in to the Albury ballot to buy Wimbledon tickets is 22nd February 2019. You need to sign into your LTA account and opt in each year. LTA numbers are free for Albury members as we are an LTA registered venue. Even if you don't plan to buy, please opt in as it will increase the club's overall ticket allocation. Will it be a final chance to see Andy Murray competing at SW19?
Wrap up warm and show off your singing skills or just enjoy the atmosphere at the annual Albury Winter get together.

Mike managed to make it three in a row in the Albury men's singles tournament after an epic match with Joel, winning 6-2, 6-4, 6-7, 6-3.
It was a good season in the doubles leagues with the renovated courts helping boost fresh interest. The reformed women's team captained by Hilary were able to fulfill all their fixtures and finished joint fourth in division 4. The men's A team captained by Joe finished third in division 4, just missing out on promotion by 3 sets. The men'...s b team finished second in division 5 just missing out on the trophy by 3 sets. The b team should join the a team in division 4 next season. Special mentions for Joel who was the best player in division 5 and Adam who was the third best player in division 5. For the a team Mike, Sachin, Joe and Paul were the third, fourth, sixth and ninth best players in division 4.
