Free membership for tennis and pickleball. Join in a minute, book a social session, and you'll never have to turn up to play on your own.
One minute. Then you'll hear about every session first, and you can find people at your level to play with all week.
The courts stay public. Free membership is about the people and the programme, never about locking the gate.
The social session is where you meet people. Clashpoint and PicklePoint are how you keep playing with them, all week, without a group chat.
Your tennis profile, a rating that grows with you, and a list of people at your level who want a game.
The same idea for pickleball: find people at your level, play doubles with anyone, and watch your rating grow.
Our weekly socials for tennis and pickleball. A host welcomes you and puts you with players at your level. Come on your own; most people do.
Court booking is on the LTA's booking system.

No. Joining costs nothing. You only pay for the sessions, courts and coaching you choose to book.
No. Preston Park's eight courts are public, pay & play, and anyone can book them. Free membership adds the social side: sessions, people to play with, and Clashpoint or PicklePoint.
Book an evening slot on the LTA court booking, up to 7 days ahead. You'll get a gate code with your booking, and the lights are on for evening play.
Not at all. Most of our members are beginners or coming back after years away. We put you with players at a similar level, so every game is a good one.
That's the whole idea. Most people arrive on their own. A host will introduce you and you'll leave knowing people to play with.
Our weekly socials are £10. Special events, like the American Doubles Tournament, are priced on their page. You pay for each session when you book it.
A paddle sport played mostly in doubles on a smaller court. It's easy to pick up in your first session and very sociable, which is why it's the fastest-growing sport in the country.
They're how we match people: Clashpoint for tennis, PicklePoint for pickleball. Each gives you a profile and a rating that grows as you play, shows you players at your level, and lets you message them to arrange a game. Both are included in your free membership.
