About Us

Walton Tennis Club is situated in a rural location on the outskirts of Stafford. We take pride in being a friendly club which welcomes new or experienced players of all abilities, offering opportunities for social tennis, league tennis and family play. We have four hard courts, and play all the year round, until 10 pm under floodlights. We have around 140 senior playing members and run social mix-ins at various times throughout the week (check our court booking page for the current schedule of mix-in and social tennis sessions). These mix-ins are a chance for members to meet other players and guarantee newcomers a game. For more competitive players, we run several teams in the local Staffordshire tennis league. Our club championship competition runs each summer and an open veterans competition runs in the winter.

Our club coach, Chris Proud, runs coaching programmes for juniors and adults and is available for private individual or group sessions and is there to meet new members at the Thursday night mix-in. The licensed bar is open on mix-in nights and we also hold social events in the clubhouse.

We have a patio and social area, with outdoor table tennis table, picnic tables and benches and this adds an extra dimension to the atmosphere at the club.

JUNIOR MEMBERSHIP:  Chris's junior coaching programme on a Saturday morning is popular and can be booked and paid for online on our coaching page. By joining the Club, members have a £2 discount on lessons and can book courts to play. Junior members of primary school age can also bring an adult to play with them for free. When the coach considers a junior is a competent player and with sufficient maturity, he/she can be offered Promoted Junior status which allows play at adult mixin sessions.
