Venue Support
Berkshire Tennis has available funds which it wishes to offer as loans to assist clubs in delivering a small facility project or an activity intended to increase membership, participation, regular play, coaching and competition for all ages. The club should apply to other possible sources of funding as well as requesting a loan from Berkshire Tennis. Application should be made before the start of a project.
