Students and PhD students can both join our club for just €40. This membership gives you the right to join our lessons, tournaments, the weekly racket evenings, activities and the right to represent our club during the regional/national competition. However, additional activities such as trainings, committee activities and external tournaments may require additional fees. Also, when you become a member of Walhalla, you immediately become a member of the Royal Dutch Tennis Bond (KNLTB), which gives you the opportunities to join open tournaments at other tennis clubs as well.

Moreover, you can become a member of Walhalla when you don’t want to play tennis, but rather want to enjoy all other amazing parties, club-evenings and non-tennisrelated activities. These members will not become a member of the Royal Dutch Tennis Bond (KNLTB), and can therefore not play tennis at our courts, neither take part in trainings and racket evenings. The price for this membership is €30,- for a year. Obtaining sports rights at Sports Centre ‘De Bongerd’ is not obligatory for those members.

Want to join us?

To register, please fill in the online registration form.
You will receive a confirmation as soon as possible! Please note that you need to have a WUR card with sports rights to join our association. If you are not in possesion of sports rights we will get less financial support from Thymos for the whole association, which means less fun. To get these sport rights we refer to the following websites:

Did you become a member of Walhalla during your student days and do you want to stay a member of Walhalla after graduation? This is possible, though under different conditions then students. Please check the graduation-page for more information!

PhD Students

PhD students have the opportunity to become a member of Walhalla. They are required to buy an association card (for more information click here). After promoting, AIO’s and OIO’s can buy an association card by the SCB for a certain price, which gives them the opportunity to be a member of Walhalla for one more year.

For certain types of PhD-contracts, buying student sports rights is not possible. Please refer to the ‘Graduation’ section for your membership.

We hope that we have provided you with enough information of how to become a member/stay a member. But if you still have questions, don’t hesitate to ask them to our secretary (secretaris@gtc-walhalla.nl).
