Season opening tournament

We will be having an all-play-all tournament to mark the start of the tennis season (well, we will if it doesn't snow, which has happened at the end of April before) on Sunday 28 April, kick-off 2:00pm. You can just turn up, but please do so on time because it makes managing things much easier. Tea in the pavilion afterwards - bring cake, quiches, fois gras sandwiches. If you can let Allan know in advance (especially if you're bringing treats to eat) then that will also make managing things easier, but it's not essential.

About us

We are a small but lively tennis club in Buxton. The club has a proud history, with tennis having been played Buxton since 1853, but we're not just about our heritage, we are an active club with plenty of tennis played at every level, from beginners to the higher reaches of the Sheffield leagues.

The 3 all-weather courts are set in a beautiful location alongside the cricket ground and bowling green with open views to the south-west, and are within easy walking distance of Buxton Town Centre. All three courts are floodlit, thanks to a donation from Tarmac in 2015, so you can play in the evenings as well as in the day (and we play in almost all weathers as well -- club sessions take place unless the courts are actually iced over!).

Interested in joining us? If you already play tennis, why not come along to one of our club sessions. Non-members are welcome to come twice without charge. Club sessions run on Saturday mornings from 9.30 onwards and on Monday evenings from 6pm (these will continue throughout the year now that we have floodlights!).

We offer the chance to take part in competitive tennis in the Sheffield and District leagues, as well as just playing when you feel like it. We have a range of coaching activities to suit everyone from beginners and people who haven't played for years to advanced junior and adult coaching. See coaching for details.

The club calendar has full details of the various scheduled sessions--any time that is not booked on this calendar is available for members to book.
