BTTC will reopen on Oct. 29, 2021

After being closed since March 2020, we are finally open again.

The 1st date we are open is October 29, 2021 @7pm ET.

There are some changes (as you can imagine) so please review carefully:

  • Covid Rules (details located at https://www.burlingtontabletennisclub.com/about/the-club/)
    • The city facility we play in is governed by the new Covid protocols.  Basically, proof of vaccination is required to enter the facility
    • You must complete a Covid screening questionnaire prior entering BTTC club (no earlier than 24 hours prior)
      • You will receive the Covid link via our Reservation system within 24 hours prior to event
    • Some new local BTTC Covid rules
  • Location
    • We are now located in the Burlington Seniors’ Centre in Auditorium A/B
      • Same complex area but different building
  • Reservation System
    • All players MUST use the reservation system to book their spot each week
      • The reservation system will be available 1 week prior to the event
  • Cost
    • Due to the City increasing their rental rates, we had no choice but to match our weekly fee
      • Currently, cash only accepted

BTTC will be re-opening soon!!!

So after 18 months, we are planning to open back up!!! 🙂

The contracts and venue have been finalized. There are a few things that need to be updated on the site (Covid rules, Covid tracking, sheduling system, general updates).
So please keep an eye on the site in the next few weeks to get more details.


BTTC – When will the club re-open?

Hello Everyone,
Been some time since any posts have been done. The Covid lockdowns keep throwing wrenches into the cogs.

So to give a very brief update of where we are now and what to expect.

With the re-opening of facilities like Central Arena, I had started the rental space negotiations with City of Burlington. I am continuing to finalize those contract to get the club operational again. Hopefully I will get this finalized within the next week or so.

I will be posting any update about the club re-opening very soon, so please standby.
Thanks


BTTC Club Closed until Jan. 2021

Hello Players,
Hopefully everyone has not gone completely crazy with the lockdown and everyone has stayed safe.

I have been in discussions with City of Burlington over the Central Arena programs. I have now received official word that BTTC will not be able to resume our program until Jan. 2021.
This is mainly due to a few reasons laid out by the City over:
– program space within facilities (playing space/room tetris)
– program association with Provincial level sports affiliation
– regular/amount of attendees
– programs that are open to all levels and players

I have some meetings scheduled in October with the city to further discuss the action plan to get our program operational again. Hopefully I will receive some better news at that time and be able to provide a positive update.

If you want to continue to play in the interim, I suggest you could look at becoming a member at Elite TTC in Mississauga.

Please continue to visit our website for any updates as they will be posted as frequently as I receive them.


BTTC Closed until Sept. 18, 2020

Due to the City of Burlington decision to close the arenas until the end of June, that unfortunately ends are season.

Hopefully our player participation for next season will exceed this year’s weekly attendance. We have seen a lot of new players come through the facility this year and has been fun to meet them.
With our regular core players showing up every week, I like to extend a thank you for continued support of the club.

Please continue to visit our website for any updates as they will be posted as frequently as I receive them.
Sorry for any inconvenience the CORVOD-19 is causing.


BTTC Closed Until April 17, 2020

Due to the City of Burlington decision to close the arenas for the next 3 weeks and April 10, 2020 being the Good Friday holiday, BTTC will be closed until April 17, 2020.
Please continue to visit our website for any updates as they will be posted as frequently as I receive them.
Sorry for any inconvenience the CORVOD-19 is causing.


Club Open – March 13, 2020

The club will be open as per normal on March 13, 2020.
Currently the City of Burlington are in meetings to discuss if/when they might suspend activities in the Central Arena.
I will post any updates as soon as I hear.

With the wake of the CORVID-19, we do ask for some simple precautions:
– If you have been sick in the last 14 days, please do not attend
– Please wash hands frequently while at the club
– We will bypass the normal pleasantries of shaking hands during matches


Weekly Reservation System available now

After a successful pilot period for the month of December, we have decided to go live with the weekly reservation system.
This will now hopefully prevent players from driving into the club with the disappointment of not being able to play.

You can now reserve your spot each week by going to the following link:
https://www.burlingtontabletennisclub.com/about/the-club/

The form will normally be available the prior Sunday at 19:00 ET and will close on the Friday at 18:40. If the reservations reach the 17 player limit, the form will no longer be available for that week. Walk-ins are still welcomed, if space is available.
Thanks
