Mens 1 vs Wendover

BLTSC vs Wendover

A great nights tennis last week at Sandford Road as our Mens 1 were defeated by local rivals Bromley Wendover. BLTSC Men were well supported supported but the Wendover line up were just too strong! Great to watch: high quality tennis played competitively and respectfully by all.  Players and spectators were rewarded with a great BBQ and a few cool drinks!

 

BLTSC free Open Day: Sunday 7th July 10am – 1pm

Everyone is welcome to our second free open day of 2024.

It’s between 10am and 1pm on Sunday 7th July. Our tennis and squash courts will be available free for visitors. There’ll also be free coaching for young and old, beginners and experts.

We will be able to offer some Pickleball taster sessions.

So, why not come along? 

There will be lots of free activities on the day: enough for all the family. We’ll even provide rackets, so just come in your trainers.

BLTSC has 12 outdoor and 2 indoor tennis courts; and 3 squash courts. If it’s raining- no matter- we’ll be inside!

Our outdoor tennis courts are 3 different surfaces – clay, hard, and new artificial grass. 6 courts are floodlit so we can play outdoors until 10pm all year round.

In tennis, squash and racketball we have very active box leagues so you can get a lot of competitive play if you want. In tennis there are over 80 singles box league players, and over 40 mixed doubles box league players.

We run a wide variety of tennis classes: from Tots (age 3) through to adult beginners so there’s no excuse no matter what your age or ability. It’s a great way to get fit and meet new people.

In addition we have free pool, free table tennis, free wifi, free BT Sport and bar (not free!) in the club house.
