Welcome to SHADWELL TENNIS CLUB
Introduction
Established in the 70s, Shadwell Tennis Club offers a warm welcome to players of all standards. Our two all-weather tennis courts are located in the middle of a friendly, quiet and safe neighbourhood, not far from Shadwell Primary School. Our club has a fantastic programme which provides a great experience for those who want to learn to play better tennis, have fun, get fit or just socialise. Our dedicated team of volunteers is constantly enhancing our programme and facilities.
Access to the Courts
Our address is: The Ginnel, rear of 153 Main Street, Shadwell, Leeds, LS17 8JG
The courts, which are not visible from the road, are accessed through a gate in the high stone wall which runs along the ginnel. The ginnel starts at the bend next to 153 Main Street (LS17 8JD), runs between Ash Hill Drive (LS17 8JR) and Church Farm Garth (LS17 8HD) and continues through to St Paul's Church yard. The ginnel is not shown on Google Maps!
There is no vehicular access to the club so please be considerate to our neighbours and park responsibly. You can also travel to the club using the 7S bus (alight by Shadwell fish and chip shop).
What can we offer you?
Maintaining and exceeding all the LTA safeguarding standards, Shadwell Tennis Club provides an inclusive, safe and secure learning and playing space that is ideal for young players. Our courts are available for play all-year round, weather and light permitting. We hope more adults and families will join us to enjoy the game of tennis.
We have a court booking system in place - members are advised to book their court in advance to secure it and make other members aware that the court time is taken.
We run several social sessions and adult members of any tennis standard are very welcome. They are free for tennis club members and the U3A session is free for members (over 55's only) and members of the U3A. Please see the social tennis page (this is a subheading of the "MORE" page) for details.
If you are interested in learning how to play tennis or looking to improve your game, you can take advantage of our coaching programme, led by our LTA-accredited professional coach. Both individual and group coaching is available, to suit all ages and abilities. There is a particularly strong junior coaching programme. More information about our coaching programme can be found on the COACHING page. We also organise some Tennis Camps during the school holidays. Look out for some fun events such as the QUORN FAMILY CUP, TEAM CHALLENGE, MONSTER SMASH and EASTER EGG HUNT - plus many more!
Our energetic committee of volunteers is constantly working hard to improve both on-court and off-court facilities and encourage more social involvement for current and potential members.
Courts are Open for Tennis - Play Safely!!
Our 12-MONTH membership year begins on April 1st, please renew your membership before this date so you can continue to book courts.
