Tennis Rules

  • The tennis courts may be booked by the hour, on the hour, during the Club opening hours up to two weeks ahead.
  • Nobody may book singles for more than 1 hour or doubles for more than 2 hours in any one session (irrespective of the person booking the court).  However, this rule is not applicable if the court is NOT booked for the succeeding hour and/or no-one is waiting or subsequently arrives and wishes to play.
  • If a booking is not taken up within 15 minutes of the time reserved, the booking lapses and the court becomes available to the first member claiming it. If members are waiting to use a court they must make themselves known to the players already on the court.
  • Members are reminded that bookings and cancellations by telephone should be made during Club opening hours or by confirmed email. Members who have booked courts and subsequently do not intend to use them are urged to ensure they are cancelled promptly in order that other members may know that the courts are available for use.

The tennis courts are open to Full and Country members and their guests in a limited capacity as follows: 

Full and Country members may invite guests for use of the swimming pools and tennis courts.

For each membership household up to four guests are permitted per day to visit the Club for swimming and/or tennis.

Please contact us by telephone on 01732 458261 option 2 to book your swimming and/or tennis guests’ visit to the Club.

The fee is £10 per guest for swimming and/or tennis.

As we limit the number of guests permitted at the Club each day, guest tickets may not be available on the door.

The guest(s) may only use the Club while the adult member is also present. Guests may only use the courts while playing with or against members.

Please note that you are required to pay for guests on the tennis courts even if they are not playing.
