Ladies on Thursday

The sessions happen all year round at 10am on a Thursday morning. They are open to ladies of all abilities; beginners, improvers, returners, team players.

The tennis is mostly doubles, playing 4 games and then swapping around partners. But it can take whatever form those on the court wish. The tennis lasts for 80 to 90 minutes, then it is time for coffee, tea, biscuits and some chatter. 

That's the factual details of our Thursday mornings, but the session is so much more than that. This is how some of the players describe it 

  • "Fun tennis for all levels, very sociable in beautiful surroundings, tea, coffee, biscuits and even sometimes cake!"
  • "Thursdays are Hers days at Hackness. 10am to 12 midday. Hit some balls and enjoy a cuppa and a chat with our friendly lady members."
  • A lovely social morning = good tennis, good coffee, good chat - who could ask for more?"
  • "I was advised to join this group as a beginner and the ladies were incredibly patient and welcoming."
  • "I also joined this group as a beginner and was greatly encouraged and made to feel welcome."
  • " 'Thursday Morning Ladies' is a very valuable social group to me." 
  • "I really love my Thursday morning tennis and chat sessions and would recommend them to anyone. The ladies are fun and friendly and the setting is sublime!"
  • "Social tennis for all levels in stunning surroundings. Followed by a cuppa and a natter. A lovely way to spend the morning."
  • "Friendly social tennis in a beautiful setting with the bonus of tea and biscuits afterwards!"
