Based in Raphael park, Romford the club has 12 all weather courts, which were relaid in 2005, that are open 7 days a week throughout the year.
The aim of the club is to provide tennis to the community at an affordable cost, and this is achieved by using a pay as you play concept, without the need to be a member of a club, you can just turn up and play with your friends or join in with the organised social session that are run by the club.
If competition is your thing then the club has teams in a number of the Essex and local summer and winter leagues, for mens, ladies and mixed doubles. Also as part of the Tennis Foundation e-park initiative, local box leagues and match play competition can also be arranged.
In March 2010 the club was awarded Beacon Site Status by the Tennis Foundation in recognising of the services provided to the local community.
