About Kelvingrove Community Tennis Club
We are a small community tennis club located in the beautiful surroundings of Kelvingrove Park. All our sessions are open to the public and we work in partnership with Glasgow Life to welcome and encourage people to play tennis at all levels.
If you fancy a game of tennis with an informal and welcoming group, Kelvingrove Community Tennis Club is for you! Our club has no paid membership and the core of our programme is adult social tennis which has a long history at Kelvingrove.
The current programme of adult social tennis consists of 2 sessions each week on Tuesdays from 6 - 8pm and Sundays from 2 - 4pm and the cost is £4 per session, no need to book, just turn up and pay the coach, cash only.
These sessions operate all year round, are open to the public on a pay as you go basis and one of our coaches Alan or Tony will be there to welcome you. We aim to create a fun, welcoming and supportive environment for adult players of all standards except complete beginners so if you have played a game of singles or doubles, can score the game and serve overhead you will be very welcome to join in. We also organise friendly tournaments, charity fundraising and social events.
In keeping with our inclusive ethos the club delivers 2 separate weekly sessions of tennis coaching for adults with mental health problems and adults with learning disabilities outdoors at Kelvingrove Park in the Spring/Summer and indoors at the Gorbals Leisure Centre in the Autumn/Winter and we are proud to also deliver a small wheelchair tennis session indoors at the Gorbals Leisure Centre from October - March every year. Contact Carol Jones at kelvingrovetennis@hotmail.co.uk if you are interested in finding out more about these sessions. Our club is also a signatory to Scotland's Mental Health Charter for Physical Activity and Sport.
