Spray Damage

Over spray from sunscreen and insect repellents damage the grass courts. Already this season we have seen many tan/brown areas where spray was used. How do we know it is sunscreen spray and not something the crew is inadvertently doing? We can see green footprints (healthy grass) where the spray hit the person rather than the grass - so please be careful with the sunscreen spray.

I suggest that you ask Fred to bring this issue to the attention of all members via the weekly email mail, as well as a note posted near the pro shop for a few weeks.

Maybe some Irish dude was spraying too much sunscreen on his, or her, sensible skin.
