Whether you’re a local or simply visiting, you want to know if there’s a car boot sale on this weekend, a church jumble sale or a 5k fun run. Maybe you’re looking for a local comedy night, an amateur dramatics production, and let’s not forget carol singing or village fetes.

Queen Camel Tennis Club will be holding a BIG TENNIS WEEKEND on Saturday & Sunday, the 10th/11th September with a packed programme of coaching, fun games and a chance to just have a go swinging a racquet and hitting a few balls.
The courts will be open from 9.00 am on each day. On Saturday there are the following coaching sessions for children:
09.30am – Years 6, 7 & 8
10.30am – Years 1, 2 & 3
11.30am – Years 4, 5 & reception
12.30pm – 12yrs + & adults
After a short break, there will be a fun Cardio session from 2.00 pm and after that both courts will be open for anyone who wishes to have a go.
All sessions are free of charge over the week-end!
In between there will be a chance to use the ball machine, see who has the fastest service, beat the coach – and there will be prizes if you can! Or just have a go with your friends and family on the courts.
Sunday morning starts with the GREAT BRITISH BREAKFAST served from 9 am. Whilst breakfast is served, there will be a chance for children and families to play on the courts.
In the afternoon we hold a very popular Parent & Child Tournament. This is always a relaxed and friendly affair and concludes with a delicious cream tea – and more prizes!
Refreshments will be available throughout the two days and Queen Camel Tennis Club can guarantee you a warm welcome and a really good tennis experience. We have a special offer over the week-end for children under 11 to have FREE membership of the Club for a year. For Adults we are offering a reduced fee of £40 for the remainder of the year.
The Club enjoys a stunning position on the edge of the Playing Fields in Queen Camel and the two courts, which were resurfaced and repainted a couple of years before the pandemic, look amazing. We are a lively and friendly Club and encourage members of all ages and abilities. We offer excellent coaching for both adults and children and the Club’s Head Coach, Antonia Corp, will be on hand on Saturday to encourage, advise, coach and inspire. Club members will also be on hand to answer any questions and to make up a four or play with smaller children. The mini nets will be out and rackets and balls will be available for everyone to use.
Come and GIVE TENNIS A GO over the weekend – bring your family and friends and have a great time. We look forward to seeing you. Our postcode is BA22 7NN and once in the village, there are signs to the courts.
