Welcome to Otford Tennis Club!

 

We are a friendly club situated in the picturesque village of Otford.

We have 3 all weather courts, floodlights, and a club house with changing rooms.

Open Day - 26 April

News

News of Open Day, 26 April

We kicked off the summer tennis season with an Open Day.  It was good to meet and play with several visitors, and club members and their families.  The coaches did well to spend time with everyone, from the 3 year-olds upwards.

If you came along for the first time and would like to find out more about joining the club, see Membership and contact Alison Dykes.  To find out more about coaching sessions - for members or non-members - see Coaching or contact Mary Evans

 

Open Day 2009

Tickets for Wimbledon

Otford is fortunate to have 33 pairs of tickets for this year's Wimbledon championships.  The club ballot has been held and most of the tickets have now been allocated to members; if you haven't sent your cheque in then please do so a.s.a.p. and certainly to arrive by 22 May.

A couple of pairs remain for any member who is interested (provided he/she is at least 9 years old and a British Tennis member).  Contact Julian Ward.

If you've got tickets - have a great day at Wimbledon!

Evening club sessions  for full members - Tuesdays & Thursdays

Club members of various standards enjoy the club evenings throughout the year - and during the summer these happen on Thursdays as well as Tuesday evenings.

Those who come after getting back from work in London usually arrive at about 7.30pm, but you're welcome to start earlier - if you do intend to arrive earlier then it's best to liaise with others to ensure there's a good group there.

The newsletter has been sent out to members by e-mail and post.  To see it on-line, click here.  The May newsletter will be here soon - watch this space!

Coaching Programme

A range of abilities is catered for in an extensive coaching programme, with Otford's experienced LTA-qualified coaches.  Both club members and non-members can participate.  As well as full courses of coaching, individual "pay & play" group sessions are run.   See Coaching or contact Mary Evans for more information.
