New to Tennis?

If you’re new to tennis or returning to the game after a break, Buckingham Lawn Tennis Club is a great place to start.

We offer a welcoming environment where players can learn, improve and enjoy the game.

 


 

Step 1 – Try a Club Session

Visitors are welcome to come along and join friendly doubles matches with members.

During these sessions you can:

• meet club members
• play relaxed doubles tennis
• get a feel for the club atmosphere

No partner is required and matches rotate regularly.
