The Club is the proud owner of ten superb grass courts for summer play which are a delight to experience and the envy of visiting players.
Seven hard courts offer year-round all-weather play, four of which are artificial grass, and all are floodlit for evening play. Tournaments, team practice sessions and social play are organised by the club, offering a range of play to suit all tastes and ages.
Members are welcome at the regular and lively social tennis sessions on evenings and weekends which are suited to a range of abilities.
For more competitive tastes, the club also enters a large number of mens’, ladies’, mixed, junior and veterans’ teams in local and national competitions.

The Avenue were accredited with Tennis Clubmark on Wednesday 30th June 2010, and our thanks go to Rob Mort, Roger Manvell and others involved for all their hard work  in gaining  this achievement.
