Burnham Tennis Spring Charity Tournament 4 May 2026
To complement our more serious club championships we will be organising a fun social tournament, open to all senior members of the club, to a maximum of 24, on 4th May beginning about 09.45 am.
The format will depend a bit on numbers but expect to play 5 or 6 short matches all with different partners. Coffee and biscuits will be available during the morning along with some traditional prizes for our winners.
This year our charity is Burnham Foundation, a small local organisation which gives financial help to individuals and groups in support of local projects which improve the lives of people in Burnham.
Please sign up at the JustGiving web site created for the purpose and make a payment of £5.00:

When you enter your payment be aware of the request for a "Tip to JustGiving". To avoid this, click on the item which says, "custom amount". This allows you to zero the amount.
If anyone is generous enough to donate but is unable to play please let me know so I'm not expecting you.
I look forward to members signing up and having a busy morning.
Peter Downes
Please note our summer camp will be between 3-Aug-2026 and 7-Aug-2026
More information will be published later.

About Us
This is Burnham Tennis .....
..... or more accurately, Burnham Tennis Association (BTA). Most tennis clubs are called 'Lawn Tennis Club' - a misnomer in itself in most cases these days. In our case, when we were established in 1977, we were supported by Burnham Parish Council; the aim was to encourage and develop tennis in the local area. As a community club, a different type of name was thought appropriate.
Today, BTA is a thriving and energetic all-year-round club with about 130 members, nearly 50% of whom are juniors. Over half of our members have signed up with British Tennis. We have three all-weather courts, and two of these have floodlights.
Tennis action ..... all ages, all stages
BTA runs a number of adult and junior teams which play a full range of fixtures in the county and beyond. There are also social tennis opportunities, club sessions and American tournaments. Internal box leagues and ladder competitions are run during the year for singles, men's, ladies’ and mixed doubles; the majority of members of all ages take part in these.
BTA’s club championships take place annually during the summer months; these are either knock-out or ‘round robin’ in format, and culminate in junior and adult Finals Day(s) in July.
In September, our open Mixed doubles tournament, the Frost Cup, is energetically contested and also provides some excellent, sociable spectator sport.
Club morning and Club evening sessions, where all members mix in, take place every week throughout the year for junior and adult players. The regular American Tournaments are designed to mix tennis with a social element.
Coaching is available for all standards and ages, and can be arranged for teams, groups or individuals.
A formal note .....
Our AGM is held each November. This is open to all members, and provides a further opportunity for members to talk with the Committee, ask questions and make suggestions. The entire Committee is up for re-election each year, and there is a regular turnover of members.
