FAQ
When are the courts open?
Every day from 8am until dusk (courts close in line with daylight hours). Please note some courts may be booked for coaching activities or events.
Do I have to be a Woking resident to register and play?
No, everyone is welcome.
How do I become a member?
Please visit our Membership page - payment is made online and costs just £39 for a year for a household of up to 5 people.
I only want to play once or twice, what can I do?
Annual memberships offer unbeatable value but if you want to just pay and play for a single session that’s fine too.
Simply register, book and pay for your court. Enter the access code detailed on your confirmation email at the gate.
Once I have booked my court, how do I get access?
You will receive a booking confirmation containing a 4-digit PIN. Enter this into the keypad at the gate (the PIN will be active 10 minutes before the booked session, throughout the booked session and then until 5 minutes after the booked session has ended).
What do I do if my PIN doesn't work?
Please double check that you are trying to use your PIN within the timeframe that the PIN is active (please see section above). If you are, please call the telephone number that is on your booking confirmation during office hours 01483755855 and you will be provided with an alternative PIN for that booking. Out of hours, please call 03300 539 395.
