REC TENNIS IS BACK... and better than ever before!
Tennis does not always have to be about competitive match play and can provide many other ways to relax, make new friends, and have a laugh! Coaching, Social tennis and Recreational Matchplay are all good ways of making new friends whilst also improving your game. All this, along with club nights out and watch parties for all the major events, the Tennis Club is sure to be a safe bet if you want to have fun, whether you're a complete beginner or the next Nadal or Radacanu.
Weekly Wednesday Rec Sessions
Each Wednesday from 1-4 pm, members of the Tennis Club have exclusive use of the outdoor courts which include 4 clay and 4 hard courts. These sessions will involve social hitting, point play, and tennis games organised by our coaching scholars! These sessions are a great place to improve your game, have fun and meet new people. No sign-up is necessary, just feel free to come along and take part!
Weekly Advanced Rec Sessions
If you're looking to meet new people whilst also improving your game, Advanced Rec is the place for you. This will be on Wednesdays 9-11am on the outdoor courts. Advanced Rec is an hour of hitting, games, drills and point play as well as a chance to meet new people at the same level as you. This session is aimed at players who are at the same standard as the advanced coaching sessions.
See you on Court
