Racquet sports are where everything started here at David Lloyd Clubs. We have over 30 years of experience giving members of all ages first-rate coaching, courts and facilities.

Our racquets facilities and expertise aren't just about tennis – although that's certainly a much-loved activity at our clubs! Depending on the club, you can also try badminton, squash, pickleball and Padel. Whether you want to try a new racquet sport or perfect your existing skills, there's no better health club to support you.

As you might expect, the tennis facilities at David Lloyd Clubs are truly excellent. Across our clubs we're proud to be home to  match-quality indoor and outdoor tennis courts, plus all-weather tennis domes, which give you the option to have a lesson, play a match or practise your serve all year round.

Tennis is a great game to learn at any age. Our expert coaches, state-of-the-art racquets facilities and comprehensive range of tennis lessons for both kids and adults will help you get started.

Our Tennis Stars programme for kids and teenagers is the perfect way to introduce them to the sport and help them to develop their skills. Whether your child is totally new to the game, or they’re slightly older and are looking to take their game to the next level, we’ll help them to realise their potential while making friends and having fun.

With tennis lessons and classes available for adults, you can learn the game from the ground up and work on your tennis fitness. And it's not just about learning tennis as a beginner - if you're a more experienced player, our specialist coaches can help improve your performance and give you more enjoyment from playing.

If you have quick reflexes and love some healthy competition, squash is the sport for you. It'll improve your speed, strength and reaction time, and it's sociable too (even when the competition is intense!). We have squash courts in some of our clubs, welcoming both experienced players and beginners.

You could also try something new with Pickleball at your local club. Pickleball is easy to pick up for racquet sport novices and veterans alike – and it’s fun, social, and surprisingly addictive. 

Badminton is a lightning-fast game where great tactics, good timing and being quick on your feet can soon see total beginners become regular winners. Every game has either two or four players, so it’s a really fun and sociable way to stay fit and get your heart pumping. We have badminton courts at selected clubs across the UK.
