New East Glos website is launched

The first East Glos website was launched in March 2000, and we were the first racquets club in Gloucestershire to have one.

The website was most recently revamped in July 2003, long before the days of smartphones and tablets. It has served us well, but things have moved on.

Nowadays websites need to work properly on all devices. And content needs to much more succinct and clearly signposted, because users expect to be able to find what they want as quickly as possible.

Today we’re proud to be launching our brand new website.

The website build was project managed by club member Julian Wellings, who also wrote the content. Thanks to the site developers We Do WordPress for their patience and technical expertise, and to photographer Gareth Poulton of Stables Photography Studios for his superb images.

We hope members and visitors enjoy our new website.

Ps. What did our website look like back in March 2000? Thanks to the Wayback Machine we can reveal all here.  Although it had a bit of a home made feel to it, a lot of websites looked like this 14 years ago. Honest.
