Thank you for visiting, we hope it was intentional!

You are very welcome to come along for social tennis! - Great to see all the new players at the first social of the season!

Cockermouth Tennis Club needs YOU!

If you are a rusty player with a dusty racquet with dodgy strings, don't worry about that and come along to any social evening on Mondays or Thursdays at 6.30pm. You are all very welcome and it would be great to see you! Racquets are available for you to use. New racquets are also available if you fancy an upgrade.

Membership

Membership is less than £1 a week for adults and less than 40p a week for Juniors! Amazing value when you consider you have the courts available to use at most times! All membership fees are put into the club funds for improving the facility, so the more people that join the more we can do! The more members the more influence we will have within the Grasmoor Sports Centre!

Covered Courts?

The centre had permission to put a 'bubble' over the three courts which sadly lapsed due to lack of funds. This can easily be reapplied for as soon as we are ready! The problem with a bubble (essentially a constantly inflated plastic bag) is that it can be vandalised very easily as has happened with the new one in Carlisle. I feel that they could/should have gone for one of the options below.

Could the the future for Cockermouth Tennis Club be covered!? Possible covers are a Coprisystem a Rubb structure or a Velderman cover.

The Veldeman system

This can have sliding windows as well for the Summer months.

The Copri-system

Also with sliding sides!

The Rubb system

Junior tennis camps for 2009 at our home at the Grasmoor Centre Cockermouth.

The age range is from 6 - 12 yrs. They start at 9.30am and finish at 1.00pm Monday - Friday. The older kids play on a separate court playing Round Robin Tournaments if they wish or alternatively we have the ball machine and other group games which are great fun. In the picture below the younger end kids are learning to play doubles with 'proper' scoring with 'deuce-advantage' and stuff! The smaller court and net is easier to hit over and encourages the ball control skills needed to win the point.

Now imagine this photo with one of the above covers!
