Supporting the campaign to keep the tennis courts open..far too many playing fields and sports areas are closed. They should be allowed to be and helped to be kept open all year round.. If people are prepared to play..then give them the opportunity.

We should be encouraging people to get outside and play sport not locking them out of sports facilities. Very short sighted thinking.

Shocked by this decision!!!! people like Wayne Sedgmore and his son Jonathan have given so much time over the years to help kids and teens enjoy sport (tennis) and keep them off the street and glynneath council play another dirty trick. Shame on you Glynneath Council you should be very ashamed of yourselves. But hey ho maybe whilst the tennis courts are closed maybe you can revamp them and spend some of that nest egg your all sitting on.

Tennis in Glynneath should be made available all year round for children/adults in the community to have a choice to pursue or develop their chosen sport when they chose. there is no justified reason for the closure of these courts, in all the years they have been there they have been open through the winter months with no issues. How long will it be before the Community Council interfere with other community sporting activities in the same area?

When Britain finally has a world #1 and role model in tennis. When childhood obesity is at record levels costing the NHS billions you close the tennis courts. Well done !!!

I dare not go outside in case I fall on the pavement. Surviving with online shopping. The delivery drivers all disserve medals for risking their lives delivering in the rain! See you all again in the summer when it's safe to go outside again!

Jon is doing such a fabulous job with the club. It's such a shame to see the council intercepting such a benefit to the youth of the community. Keep it up Jon, you have lots of support!

delete I believe facilities such as these even if they are predominantly a summer sport should be available in all communities if the appetite and need for them exist and in this case I understand they do so I would urge the Town Council to meet up with the respective groups and come to some sort of agreement as a way forward to resolve this issue. All Councillor's whether Town, Community or Borough are there to support their Constituents and Community for the betterment of all.
