How the Club started

Click here for a fascinating insight into the club origins by Rob Forsyth (one of the founding members, and original Chair of Deddington Tennis Club).

There's an interesting fund raising letter here.

Today

 Tennis Club can be found in the Windmill Centre Sports Complex, off the Hempton Road, and has been situated on this site since the early 1980’s.
The tennis facility consists of three “all weather” hardcourts (resurfaced in 1999) with weekend access to a fourth court with artificial grass surface.

There's a clubhouse pavilion with veranda, heating and electricity including a room heater. The clubhouse has keypad access and the court key is kept inside.

In 2017 we were proud to have installed state of the art LED floodlights to two of the courts so play is now possible all the year round.

As well as the pavilion, club members are able to use the Windmill Centre facilities, which includes: toilets, showers and kitchen.

The Club caters for all standards of tennis, whether it is competitive, social or just a means of becoming a little fitter. All are welcome. A full programme of activities includes: club nights, tournaments, family sessions, ladies and mixed matches throughout the year together with regular coaching courses for those of all ages wishing to improve their tennis skills.
