COMPETING AT SHIRLEY PARK

CLUB TEAMS

We have 4 mens teams, 3 ladies teams, 3 mixed doubles teams and a few midweek/over 55s teams that represent the club in local doubles leagues. The mens and ladies teams compete home/away on Sundays, the mixed teams on midweek evenings and midweek/over 55s teams midweek daytime.

You can contact Mens Captain Kevin Clark and Ladies Captain Katy Kirkby at shirleyparkltc@gmail.com (or via Whatsapp once you've joined at met them) if you are interested in playing for the teams.

The team players train with Head Coach Nathan Worrell every Tuesday evening, which is part-subsidised by the club.

CLUB CHAMPIONSHIPS

Every May-June we hold Club Championships for Singles, Doubles and Mixed Doubles. All doubles events also have Veterans events, and the bigger draws have Plate competitions for first round losers. Finals Day is on the Sunday before Wimbledon.

BOX LEAGUES

Head Coach Nathan Worrell runs internal Box Leagues all year round - Singles and Mixed Doubles from July to October, mixed-gender Singles only from November - April. It's all run via the club website which you can see here.

ONE-OFF COMPETITIONS

We hold several fun competitions throughout the year such as the New Year's Extravaganza, Easter Eggstravaganza, Handicap Weekend as well as others (often on Bank Holidays).

SOCIAL TENNIS AT SHIRLEY PARK

At SPLTC we have several social club sessions per week:

Monday 6.30pm - open doubles (@ Trinity School Sports Club September - March)
Wednesday 10am - open doubles
Thursday 6.30pm - organised doubles (@ Trinity School Sports Club September - March)
Saturday 2pm - singles
Sunday 10am-12pm - organised doubles (not open to Off-Peak/Country or Coaching/Social members)

Club sessions are completely free for members to turn up to, and usually last 2-2.5hrs. Players play 1 set up to 6 (either self-organised or organised by a volunteer duty member) and keep doing so until everyone has gone home! We strongly believe that tennis is an inclusive sport and ALL standards are welcome at ALL sessions.

During the winter, the Monday and Thursday evening sessions are conducted under the floodlights at nearby Trinity School Sports Club. Trinity charge our players £7 per visit, paid to coach Nathan Worrell who then forwards it on to the Sports Club.

Outside of social sessions, we have a club-wide Whatsapp group where members often arrange games. Courts are first-come-first-serve and free to use for members.

Members may bring guests for £5 a visit.
