Our Tennis Club Facilities
Following the club's £140,000 court resurfacing and floodlight extension scheme, completed in 2003, we are able to offer 6 (3 hard and 3 porous acrylic) all-weather floodlit tennis courts. This gives tennis enthusiasts real flexibility in terms of when and on what surface they play in the local Southbourne and Christchurch area.
Our comfortable clubhouse has changing rooms, a lounge and TV area with kitchen. Outdoors you'll find a sunny viewing terrace, practice walls and a free on-site parking area.
Tennis Coaching
Our extensive tennis coaching programmes cater for complete beginners all the way up to county standard players.
Southbourne Tennis Club employs 2 full time qualified tennis coaches and an assistant coach. David Sanger and Ray Burningham are qualified LTA level 2 tennis coaches.
