Best Tennis Courts in Islington

When Wimbledon Fever Strikes, Where can you Play Tennis In Islington?

If like a lot of people you find yourself drawn to tennis for one month a year, usually (always) around Wimbledon time. Then you should take full advantage of this and head down to your local court to get working on that Federer one handed backhand. If none of your friends share the optimism then head to Openplays connect platform and search for other people looking to play tennis in the area. Wimbledon is not just the oldest Tennis tournament on earth it’s also the most prestigious, it’s achieved this by upholding all of their traditions. Their traditions include, most famously the all-white dress code, strawberries and cream, Royal Patronage and queueing to get tickets on the day. However, what if you don’t live in Wimbledon and you fancy a game of tennis in Central London instead. Then you should look at this list of venues in the area.

Finsbury Park Tennis Club – Islington/Hackney

Finsbury Park Tennis Club is operated by the Access to Sport project and partners with Haringey Council. What this means to the average tennis player is that these courts are bookable for a very reasonable fee, £6 per hour for adults and £3 an hour for children. That combined with the easy nature of the online booking system means that you have absolutely no excuses for not going out there and having a go. If you wanted to take it a little bit more seriously then they also offer coaching sessions and a competitive league.
