Information on the junior section

We welcome all ages and all standards – our youngest member is 4 years old - if you are not a member yet - don't worry - just turn up on a Saturday between 2-4 pm and have a go ....

We have our regular Saturday afternoon coaching with Sally Parry – a grade 3 LTA coach. Beginners are from 2-3pm and Improvers from 3-4pm with some social play afterwards.

Our Boys Teams competes in the South Bedfordshire League and we will be arranging some friendly matches for non-team members.

We also run an annual Junior American Tournament in the summer and also have an annual 'easter camp'. This is open to all juniors regardless of standard and age – an American Tournament allows all abilities to compete through a constantly changing handicap scoring system and playing with different partners.

The winner and runner up of the under 13's 2008 was Jack Griffiths and David Bryan.
The winner and runner up of the under 10's 2008 was Robert Mitchell and Mark Selby.
