We welcome all abilities to play at Ormskirk Tennis Club in West Lancashire. We aim to be a friendly and progressive club offering awide range of tennis activities for all ages.
The Club has six league teams within the top six Divisions of the Southport League. We encourage junior players with the right level of ability to play for the teams at an early age.
Our Friendly Team plays a full list of both home and away fixtures. Unlike the league teams, the friendly team enjoys an excellent tea after each match and both the tennis and the teas were very successful last year. Places in the seventh team will be reserved for those who have not been selected to play in a league team that week so if you would like to be considered for selection, make sure Linda Mountain (Tel: 0151 531 0585) has your contact details. Home matches will be played on Sunday afternoons from 4.00pm and away matches could be played on any night as decided by the team we are playing.
Junior players are an important part of the club's strategy of encouraging development from an early age. Membership includes some group coaching and Friday evening is junior night at the Club. Go to the Junior webpage
If social tennis is more your thing then you are well catered for as Ormskirk Tennis Club has two social sessions per week - Thursday evenings from 7pm and Sunday mornings from about 10am or whenever you get out of your lazy bed.
The Club operates tournaments throughout the season, again aimed at including all levels of ability, and occasional tournaments aimed at those with plenty of spare time! If you're not in the running for a Wimbledon wild card, there's always the mixed-doubles handicap which gives even the most double-faulting server or dodgy backhander a chance to win.
Official business details of Ormskirk Tennis Club are available online. Take a look at Ormskirk Tennis Club's rules. Minutes from Club meetings are available online and to download.
Why not join us by downloading a membership form now. Or you might wish to come along and see us for yourself, perhaps on one of the social days - this is where we are. Or contact the membership secretary direct (see box on right for details). It's never too late to join as we play during Winter too if the weather's okay. Seeya round.
