Welcome to Longthorpe Lawn Tennis Club

On behalf of the Committee and the members… “Welcome!”  

Access to the courts is via the combination lock.  Please message 07939594643 with your name and membership type to be sent the code.  We would ask you to keep this combination number somewhere safe and not divulge it to non members.

Please note that play may NOT start before 9am.

 

All adult members are reminded that predominantly white tennis clothing must be worn on the courts. Outer wear is exempt from this.

White tennis specific shoes are preferred (Omnicourt shoes are recommended).  No ridged trainers please as they damage the courts.

We have a Whatsapp group - please message the number above if you would like to be added.

Please join in our club sessions…. and our social events…. and help to maintain our reputation for offering a good standard of tennis in a friendly and inclusive atmosphere in a quiet and peaceful village environment.  

All adult members will be allocated a named clothes peg that will be found on the playing board.  The playing board is used for open club sessions and helps denotes order of play and who is present and ready to go on court.

We have coaching available for adults and children - please see the coaching page of our website: Longthorpe Lawn Tennis Club / Longthorpe Lawn Tennis Club - coaching (lta.org.uk)

We ask each member to take responsibility for taking care of the courts and the surrounding areas.  Please read our General Information Document to familiarise yourself with the club.  This can also be found here: Longthorpe Lawn Tennis Club / Longthorpe Lawn Tennis Club - Documents (lta.org.uk)

Please take a few moments to review our website by clicking on the Policies, and check out the ‘Members Playing Information and Club Rules’ as well as the range of other information.
