Old College Lawn Tennis Club

We were delighted to see volunteers and coaches from Old College out in the sunshine the other day, taking part in a fantastic session learning how to help disabled players be involved with tennis. Coach Jake even won top prize of a Wimbledon towel!

We’re also excited to announce that the club will be launching a new partnership with the Maudsley Hospital this May. If you're interested in helping out with this on Tuesday afternoons for 1 hour, we’re looking for volunteers.

If you’re interested in getting involved, please get in touch with our Head Coach Alex to find out more.

🎄🧑‍🎄 The weather held for the Santa Tournament!

Thanks to everyone who came down, and Alex for running the day!

We hope it helped kick off the holiday season in a fun and energetic way!

🎭 November treat!

Our very own Eileen Mahony will be performing her piece, Darling, Darling at the clubhouse for our members & friends to enjoy.

Eileen performed this at the Edinburgh Fringe and those who came along last year to her shows will know how humourous, heartwarming and thought provoking her story telling is.

Don't miss this chance to see an original piece performed!

Tuesday 7th November, 7pm

I'll be heating up the clubhouse and serving drinks to keep us warm and cosy too 😊
