SOCIAL TENNIS
Social tennis sessions are for members only, open to both adult and junior (11+) players of all tennis abilities. 11-13 year old players must have a chaperon present.
Social tennis sessions are an ideal opportunity to meet other members and play quickfire doubles matches, the aim is to play with and against as many different players as possible.
These are informal sessions run by attendees not a Club coach or representative. Players organise themselves into doubles pairings and then after 20 minutes of play they form new parings. Rotations may be timed or organised to change pairings on the hour, 20 minutes past the hour and 40 minutes past the hour.
Should there not be enough players for doubles on all courts then one of the courts is used to play either singles or 2v1. If the session is over capacity, then one of the courts is set aside for overflow where the wave game is played or individuals / pairs rotate in and out point by point / game by game. Does this sound complicated? Don’t worry there will be many social tennis veterans on hand to show you the ropes! Have fun.
Social tennis sessions take place on:
Wednesday12:00-14:00hrs (from September until April)
18:00-20:00hrs (from May until end of August)
Saturday13:00-15:00hrs
Sunday10:00-12:00hrs.
Please book your session if you would like to attend. A PIN code for the gate will be in your booking confirmation email along with details of the courts reserved for the session
Please book online or contact Lizzy Burke if you would like to find out more.
