We pride ourselves on being a sociable and friendly club. We have an experienced and committed Committee who make it all happen for the members. We are also very fortunate to have a team of volunteers who keep us ship shape with the monthly Saturday morning work parties. Annual social events also provide opportunities for more than tennis.

The park, set in an extensive area of grassland and established trees, also includes Wantage Bowls Club, children’s play facilities, the refurbished Bandstand and car parking.
