Group play and newcomer training starting in June

Doubles, as well as training in groups, will also be allowed again soon:

• From June 4th, up to 10 people will be allowed on the court.
• Again, the prerequisite is that you are either vaccinated or tested negative.
• Our newcomer training starts on Monday, June 7th (always on Mondays at 7 pm at Stephan’s).
• Until June 4th only singles are still allowed.

Matches & tournaments starting June 12th

Tournaments are also allowed starting June 4th. Of course, testing is compulsory here as well. Matches will take place from June 12th. The tennis association will send us and we will send the team captains separate information on this. Matches that were scheduled before June 12th will be rescheduled – unless they take place in Brandenburg, where competition is already permitted.

Please check the TVBB regularly for the latest information: » Treptower Teufel at TVBB.

Your tests will be checked by the board, the groundsman Jürgen, the caterer Aci and possibly also by the police. Please always carry proof of vaccination or negative test results with you. Please take the obligation to test seriously, as the club and you personally may be subject to considerable penalties if violations are found. Our first experience with a police check was during the dismantling of the hall. Here we were able to avoid a fine.

The booking of seats via Eversport is still obligatory and at the same time serves as a contact tracing system for us. In addition, of course, masks are still compulsory. Changing rooms and showers remain closed.

By the way, you can find all test centres at https://test-to-go.berlin. The test centre in the Bärenquell brewery offers free testing via drive-in without pre-registration: https://schnelltest-baerenquell.de.

And there’s always something happening on our Facebook page too! Feel free to follow us and stay up to date. We highly recommend a visit to the restaurant. Aci’s cooking is super tasty. Our favourite is the Oriental pizza with an Aperol Spritz! Cheers!

» How to find our club

We will open our outdoor courts on Tuesday, April 13, 2021. As of now, we are only allowed to play on the courts with two players per court. The booking of the courts is done via Eversport like last year. If you don’t have access yet, please follow the instructions here.

Corona Precautions

• The sports facility may only be entered by members
• From 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. and on weekends, access is exclusively via the gate at Court 5. The gate to Köpenicker Landstraße will be closed after 4p.m.
• Play is only allowed at the times booked online
• Masks are compulsory when entering and leaving the club area
• Please pay attention to the safety distance of 1,5m
• Only single games, maximum two persons on the court at the same time
• Only one person per bench, please put a fresh towel under it
• No physical contact, no handshake or the like
• The restaurant is still closed
• The clubhouse (and therefore also the changing rooms and showers) are closed, only the toilets are open
• No doubles, no small group training allowed

Please take these rules very seriously, because only their observance allows us to open our club. Violations will result in fines and the closure of our club

Course maintenance

The courts are still very soft, as they are every spring. Please pay attention to the following points:

• Enter the courts only with sand court shoes
• Water the courts sufficiently before playing
• No matches allowed for the time being
• Please close any holes immediately
• After playing, please scrape, sweep the court and the lines.

If we manage to follow all the instructions, we will have a long summer season ahead of us.

Our hall has been standing there for the entire winter without us being able to play more than three rallies in it.

For a few weeks now, the motor of the hall has been giving us a lot of trouble. Our expert strongly advises us to drain the hall and repair the motor.

In order to prevent a motor damage and an expensive repair, we need to take this as an opportunity and dismantle the hall directly.

We hereby cordially invite you to the dismantling of the hall:

Hall Dismantling

Sunday, April 11, 2021, from 8 a.m. on our facility.

To ensure traceability, please register exclusively via this link: https://www.eversports.de/e/class/VD-h64PAZ

There will be lists on site where you can register. As you all know, every year every member over the age of 14 is required to work (or pay) 5 hours. The hall dismantling is the perfect opportunity to earn work hours and get to know our new gastronomy. They will offer take-away drinks and snacks.

Hygiene precautions

An FFP2 mask must be worn during all times while dismantling to minimize the risk of corona infections. The clubhouse remains closed except for the toilets.

The open day 2021, originally planned for April 25, at which new players can get to know the Treptower Teufel and become members at reduced rates, will unfortunately not take place due to Corona. Instead, the offer is valid for all “newcomers” for the whole of April and May 2021.

What (usually) happens at the open house?

When: April 25, from 10:00 a.m. canceled due to Corona

You have the opportunity to get to know our interesting club with open-minded members from Berlin, Germany and all over the world.

Coaches and members are available as partners. Rackets and balls are available. You should bring shoes with smooth soles.

Can I become a member right away?

Of course you can. You can even do so at a special rate on this day – you save about 25% on the annual membership fee:

• Adults pay only 210 EUR (instead of 270 EUR) for the current year
• All new members receive weekly free newcomer training for the summer
• No admission fee for adults (instead of 75 EUR)
• The annual fee for children (210 EUR) includes year-round training including hall fee

This special offer is valid until May 31, 2021.

Are there age limits?

Our active members are between 8 and 83, some of them start in retirement. We have teams from under 14 to over 70 in a variety of skill levels in both men’s and women’s divisions.

We welcome newcomers, new starters, and through starters. Fill out a membership application now.

Current messages

Information about the hall closure according to the 10th Infection Protection Ordinance (as of 03.11.2020)

Hello dear members,

we unfortunately have to inform you today that we have to close our airdome with immediate effect. We received the decision to close from the district yesterday.

Today, we have again set all the levers in motion to change the mind of the district, unfortunately without success. Of course, we know that the health of all is in the first place, but nevertheless – but especially because the Infection Protection Ordinance does not prohibit the implementation of contact sports in pairs even in the halls – we had hoped for a different result.

Due to the different message, among others of the TVBB, we were very confident to still get the permission. In our case, however, the district has the power to decide and so we have no choice but to accept the closure of our airdome and leave our outdoor courts open for you as long as possible. Only singles may be played there.

As of now, we are closing our hall until November 30, 2020. Fortunately, the weather is playing along quite well in the next few days, so we are confident that we will be able to fully use courts 3-8 at least this week and next. Please be sure to reserve your courts in advance through Eversport, as we have done in previous months, so that we can ensure traceability.

The locker rooms, showers and our gastro will also be closed. So please come already dressed to the courts and leave the facility immediately after the training. Should we have to send the courts into hibernation due to weather conditions, we will inform you immediately.

As soon as there are updates on the current situation, we will get back to you.

Hang in there and stay healthy!

Your board
