The arrangements below are under constant review as we are seeking to maximise court use. Although very popular on the Friday evening and Sunday afternoon sessions, Social Mix-in Tennis has not resulted in many attending on Saturday afternoons or Tuesday evenings so the weekly timetable has been altered to see if a greater take-up can be achieved.
- Play outside of the times specified below is uncontrolled but please bear in mind that tournament matches take precedence if there is a court shortage. And please check the online court booking system through the club website. Club matches tend to be played on Sunday mornings.
