Welcome to Marnhull Tennis Club

Latest News - March 2025

The new tennis season is about to commence, so it's time to renew your membership! The 2025/2026 season at Marnhull Tennis Club promises to be more fun-filled than ever before, with everything from Wimbledon teas and tennis-flavoured pub quizzes to inter-club leagues and other competitive match play. With the new floodlights up and running we're looking forward to keeping the action going all through the year. 

If you are new to the club or still deciding whether you want to commit to a membership, come on down to our taster sessions in April, where Club Chairman Jeremy Hamer will be hosting a weekly knock-up on Wednesdays for beginners, people who are returning to tennis and anyone who wants to learn more about what the club has to offer. If you're interested in taking part, please contact Jeremy via jeremyhamer7@gmail.com
