Cloughey & District Tennis Club

Cloughey & District Tennis Club was founded in 2008 as a community-focused tennis facility in Cloughey, County Down. Our state-of-the-art all-weather floodlit courts enable year-round play, supported by a team of qualified coaches delivering structured programmes for juniors and adults. We achieved Clubmark Accreditation in 2013, Northern Ireland's eighth club to receive this recognition, reflecting our commitment to quality coaching and inclusive participation. Our facilities include three outdoor carpet courts maintained to professional standards, with flexible booking systems via WhatsApp for club play sessions. The club actively promotes tennis through beginner courses, mixed-ability leagues, and family-friendly initiatives like parent-and-child sessions. With over 15 years' experience operating in the Ards Peninsula, we provide affordable membership options for adults, juniors, and students, including access to private lessons and competitive tournaments.

Our governance structure features an elected committee ensuring transparent operations, while our coaching team combines formal qualifications with decades of practical experience. The club's location at Cloughey Pavilion offers convenient access to public parking and integrates with local community activities through partnerships with organisations like Ards North Down Council. Regular events such as monthly round-robin tournaments and pop-up coaching sessions maintain member engagement across all skill levels. Our operational model balances structured programming with flexible access, allowing members to book courts for private practice outside scheduled sessions.
