We strive to be the best place to play tennis in Bedfordshire.
Our mission is to drive up participation levels in the County, introducing more players to this wonderful sport for all ages.
Our aim is to create a welcoming tennis Club which continually invests in and improves its facilities and where members feel valued and listened to. Whatever your current playing standard, we invite you to come and sample our first-class facilities and get involved in our social tennis, coaching programmes and competitions.
TENNIS TIMETABLEWe have three purpose-built indoor courts on a carpet surface with LED lighting – providing a comfortable environment for all-year-round tennis.
In addition , we have four floodlit outdoor courts on a “Tiger Turf” artificial grass surface. These outdoor courts are protected by a high-quality tennis dome in the winter season. The dome has internal lighting and a dark blue end of court back-drop to give superb “viewing” conditions. For the summer season, the dome is removed to provide an excellent outdoor facility overlooked by our sun terrace.
Courts can be booked on your phone via our App or at the Reception. There is no additional charge for court bookings.
We try to encourage players at all levels of the sport. We operate group coaching programmes for beginners, intermediates and juniors, and if you like a bit of competition, we have internal box leagues operating for both singles and doubles.
Our social tennis session runs on Saturday afternoons, attracting players of mixed ability, and we have regular competitions. These can be fairly serious, like our Club Championships, or “fun and friendly” such as our Christmas Jumper and Strawberry and Pimms tournaments. We also run regular competitions for our juniors, to help with their development.
