Green Lane, Thrapston, NN14 4QL
Welcome to Thrapston & District Tennis Club
We are a small and friendly club which in 2006 was transformed with new facilities. There are four all weather tarmac courts, two of which are floodlit enabling play to continue through the winter and also extend those balmy summer evenings. In addition if you want to work on those ground stokes on your own there is a practice wall to warm up against. The club also owns a ball machine if you fancy a real workout. The half court is perfect for the youngsters to get their introduction to tennis with short tennis.
The modern clubhouse offers seperate men’s and women’s chaging rooms with showers, a club social room with sofas, tables and chairs to sit and enjoy a drink made in the adjoining kitchen. The club has its own table tennis table if members fancy something a little different. Complementing the clubhouse’s elevated position is the viewing balcony offering a excellent view of the courts.
The standard of play at Thrapston Tennis Club is mixed so whether you are a beginner of play inter club match tennis there is something here for everyone. There is club social tennis evening every Wednesday evening and additionally Sunday mornings in winter.
Coaching is available for all standards, starting with five year olds right the way through to ‘rusty rackets’.
For the more experienced players we presently field four men’s doubles, one ladies doubles and two mixed team to offer competitive play in the East Northants Tennis League.
The Club is very proud of being awarded the ‘Club Mark’ by the LTA. This prestigeous award is only achieved by clubs being able to demonstrate a certain level of standards and only a handful of clubs in Northamptonshire have achieved this.
