The charity has been set up to manage the club in the town of Kirkcudbright to provide recreational facilities related to the game of tennis. This benefits residents and visitors to the town and surrounding area. Through the playing of tennis members and visitors benefit from exercise with others in the open air which aids health and wellbeing through social contact. Members have access to book courts to play through an online system and there is the opportunity for visitors to book a session also. We offer social tennis sessions, walking tennis for the less mobile, participate in regional leagues, have club competitions and allow the local nursery access to the courts for play. Coaching is offered for those who wish, adults and juniors, and we offer the local primary school free coaching tasters also. The charity maintain the grounds and clubhouse, planning for the future needs of repairs and resurfacing.
