Coronavirus update — 1 July 2020
Following the easing of restrictions in England announced by the Prime Minister on Thursday 28 May and the publication of detailed Government guidance on Sunday 31 May, the Government has confirmed what these measures mean in relation to tennis. Players from different households can now play doubles together as long as they stay two metres apart as far as possible, and small group coaching for up to six people (including coaches) can resume.

Playing Tennis & COVID-19 HERE
Estcots Tennis Club is located close to the Mansion in idyllic East Court park, East Grinstead. It has two hard courts, a practice wall and a small club house. New members are always welcome. We play all year round on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. During the summer we also have club evenings on Wednesday and Friday. New balls are provided for the club sessions and there are always used balls in the club house for other times. Out of season – from the end of September through to beginning of the following April – we have open, drop-in sessions for members on Friday afternoons starting at 2pm. Estcots is affilated to the LTA.
