Sidford Tennis Club

An important part of Sidford Tennis club is holding regular social events for its members and we are currently organising an events calendar to help populate everyone's diaries. Next key events are below:

Summer League Practice Nights- Starting Tuesday 4th March 2025 through to Tuesday 15th April 2025

We have taken the decision for the Summer League Matches which will start in April 2025 to register 1 x Men’s 1 x Ladies and 2 x Mixed Teams for the summer league matches meaning more fixtures to participate in and a Mixed A and B team for the first time.

Thank you to everyone who has initially responded to say that they want to play in the league format- if there is anyone else that is interested can I ask you to get in touch with Helen Terry on e-mail: freshlight2017@gmail.com

For those that are committed to playing in the league matches we will be starting some practice session each Tuesday night from 4th March onwards from 6pm-9pm so please feel free to come and join us.
