Gladstone Park

When are the courts open?

The courts are available from 8.00 to 21:00 daily.

How do I get access? 

You will need to book a court online, using the website or booking app. Once you have booked your court you will receive your booking confirmation. Your booking confirmation will include a PIN which you can then enter into the keypad at the access gate at the courts. The PIN will be active 5 minutes before the booked session.

Do I need  to book a court every time I want to play?

Yes, you will need to book to activate your PIN code to gain entry. To organise all the players, we need everyone to book a court and confirm how long you want to play for.

What do I do if my PIN doesn't work?

Firstly, please check that you are within the timeframe that the PIN is active. If you are, please call the telephone number that is on your booking confirmation and you will be provided with an alternative PIN for that booking.

How many sessions can I book?

You can play for a maximum of 2 hours per day on one court.

Can I hire a court for coaching purposes?

Am I entitled to a concessionary rate if I am in receipt of benefits?

There are no concessionary rates.

Can I hire equipment?

Unfortunately, we do not offer that facility.

Can I cancel a booking I have already made?

What is the cancellation policy?

Cancellations must be made with at least 24 hours notice, any cancellations within 24 hours of the court booking will not be eligible for a refund or transfer.

If I see damage to the courts or anti-social behaviour who should I report this to?
