Welcome to the Official Website for ...

Buntingford Tennis Club

 

The Tennis Club in Buntingford, Hertfordshire was the first official UK Modern Tennis Centre.

The temporary venue for Buntingford Tennis Club is the newly re-surfaced astro-turf Buntingford Multi-Games Area on Bowling Green Road which is hired from the Buntingford Sports Association. Later this year we hope to start building work at a new site in Buntingford, which will provide a Pavillion, floodlit courts and a kids zone.

Want to get involved?

We would love to meet the people of Buntingford and its surrounding villages and towns, that want a Tennis Club in the town and might be interested in being on a Committee to help run Club nights and mornings, arrange matches for the adults and juniors, social events for adults and juniors etc.

You can join as a Member -

For just £10 if you're a Junior, £25 if you're an adult joining on your own or just £50 for a whole family!

Membership runs until 1st December 2008 when the bad weather will take over the courts! We're currently looking for an alternative venue for the winter months to keep the Club going - more news to follow!

You can download an application form from the box further up this page.

Members can turn up and play any time during their membership, that the courts are free and not pre-booked. Please note you can only play with another member - not a non-member.

You can also join the Committee -

We are looking for Committee members to help run the club and support the longer term development plan for a facility at Edwinstree School. We're now meeting regularly so if you wish to join in, please let us know.

Here is the current motley crew with proof that we DID have some sunshine this year!

Our Longer Term Goals

 

Tennis Club Development Programme We are working on the development of a Tennis Club that will be a sectioned off area on the unused playing field at Edwinstree Middle School on Bowling Green Lane. It is planned that it will have 3 outdoor, flood-lit courts with an all weather surface, a kid's zone and Clubhouse alongside. We have big ambitions! Click here to see what they are ...
