About Us

Don’t be fooled by the name. While the club is within the grounds of the National Physical Laboratory and has many connections with the company, NPL Tennis is open to everyone.

We are part of the NPL Sports Club, which also has bowls, cricket, football and hockey sections.

The club is run by a committee that is representative of all of the players and social members. Current Chairman is Glen Kirton and the Club Secretary is Mike Newman. The club is a nice mix of established and newer members and has a thriving junior section.

Above all, we are open, welcoming and always on the look-out for new blood. The six summer teams that we run in local leagues mean that we look every summer for around 50 players who want to play in the friendly – but competitive – Slazenger Middlesex League. We also have six club competitions, plus a wealth of opportunity for social play. If you’re interested in joining, why not come along to the next Open Day (see calendar), or just roll up any Sunday afternoon?
