Tennis for all
Facilities
The club has access to 9 outdoor artificial clay courts, 2 grass courts and 3 indoor courts. Our artificial clay courts are playable in most conditions and members are able to book courts as part of their membership. Our indoor courts are available for anyone to hire, subject to a small registration fee. Our grass courts are available throughout the summer (in dry conditions), and are free to members.
Our pavilion is being revamped in September 2025.
Weekly Programme
We like to think we offer something for everyone. We hold Social Member-run Mix Ins on most days of weeks, and Coached Mix Ins (during term time) on Mondays and Wednesdays for Improvers and on Saturdays for all levels.
We offer Walking Tennis on Wednesdays 12-1.30pm. Walking tennis is a fun and inclusive form of tennis, and is particularly suitable for beginners or those with limited mobility. It is played with softer orange balls and players are allowed 2 bounces. Play can be as a Walking Tennis member or at a cost of £5/session – no booking required. Participants enjoy a cup of tea or coffee afterwards.
The weekly Junior Mix In runs on Fridays in term-time from 5.30-7pm.
Fun Tournaments and Competitions
The club holds regular fun tournaments throughout the year; we also have a Singles Box League; we take part in Kent League and summer Dover and District Leagues. The annual Club Championships is well-supported and fiercely contested. Team training is also available.
We also host a comprehensive programme of LTA and Senior ITF competitions.
Social Events
Regular events include Club Quizzes, Club Awards Evening, Family Bingo night, suppers, lunches as well as other ad hoc events.
