Cambridge University Real Tennis Club

Established in 1866 on Grange Road, Cambridge University Real Tennis Club is one of the world's most historic venues dedicated to the original racquet sport. The club features two indoor real tennis courts—the Green Court and the Blue Court—retaining authentic stone-and-plaster architecture, asymmetric layouts, and dedicated viewing galleries. Open to university students, senior members, and town residents alike, the club maintains a competitive yet welcoming community. Players participate in regular club fixtures, handicap leagues, Varsity matches, and national tournaments throughout the year. Court time can be booked through the club's dedicated online scheduling system, with match marking provided by resident professionals during peak hours. Off the court, members gather in the traditional club room overlooking the courts, making it a hub for enthusiasts eager to master the intricate strategy, spin, and handicapping system of real tennis.
