Individual games
Of course, all members are welcome to arrange individual games with other members using the BOOKING tab above.
Ladders are regularly run through the club and the LTA. Please ask  Lawrence Rook for details.

Club Sessions
For many members, Club Sessions are at the heart of the Club. They are a chance to play some fun tennis (usually doubles) with different people, without the hassle of organising a foursomeyourself and they are a great way to meet other members.

Club Sessions take place on Saturday afternoons, Friday mornings and on Wednesday evenings.  
Day time sessions are open to both full and associate members and evening sessions to full members.

Wednesday session - 7pm to 9pm  - please see bookings page for courts allocated each week 

Friday  session        -     10am to 12pm  on Courts 3 & 4  

Saturday session   -     2pm to 4pm  on Courts 5,6,7 & 8        (or 1:30 to 3:30pm in winter)

Coaching
We have a very full Coaching Programme for Adults and Juniors run for us by top class coaches – for details, visit our COACHING pages, which give details of set programmes & sessions and how to apply.
Our coaches are also happy to arrange Individual Lessons by being contacted directly.
We have a thriving  Junior Programme with many promising players coming through. 

Teams
We have numerous teams that play in the Cambridgeshire League and practice together at team coaching sessions. (click on the Teams pages above for details)

All members are welcome to try for the teams but please be aware that competition is fierce at most levels and places are not always available. Successful players are not chosen solely on their ability but also on their availability,  commitment and length of service to the team. Usually players need to make themselves available for team coaching sessions as well as matches.  

Volunteer Led Social Groups (VLSG)
We also have numerous VLSG which are open groups set up by individual members which encourage other members to apply to join.  On the BOOKING section they are called "Open Social Groups", coloured in light blue, with the name of the main organiser in brackets next to it. They run throughout the week in the mornings and on weekends and they are another great way to meet other players and to find your level. To find more details and who to apply to please click on this VLSG link. 

Club competions
For those who enjoy competitive matches, we have a range of club competitions throughout the season. Our annual club tournament  for both singles and doubles combinations start in early summer. We also run shorter tournaments, such as American Doubles tournaments which last a few hours and run at various times of the year. 

Guests
You can invite non-members to play with you at a cost of  £5 per hour guest fee. (See MEMBERSHIP/Categories for details)
