Cressington Tennis Club

What a season for our 4th Men’s Team! In their first year competing in the Tennis Liverpool League, they’ve secured promotion at the first attempt! A total of 18 players contributed through the season to make it all happen. Here’s the team before their final match against Hightown. Fantastic effort from everyone.

Our men’s B team are having a great season - they secured their fourth win in a row this week when they played at home to Waterloo. They’re now in third position in Division C. 👏👏👏

40 years ago it was a common sight in Liverpool Tennis Clubs but, for over a generation now it was thought to be completely extinct until.....an intrepid Cressington 4th team exploring the Hightown area for a league match discovered a surviving example of..... a grass tennis court!

Our new Men's 4th Team achieved their first win of the season in the Liverpool League on Friday. Here's the squad on Sunday honing their match skills in a mini tournament.

For their first match in the TennisLiverpool League, our new Men's 4th team let the 'train take the strain' to travel to their match at Formby. Here they are on the way home at Freshfields Station.

A terrific evening for our annual spring club celebration, this time at Carlisi, Allerton. So great to celebrate the start of the season with members old and new! Thanks to all who organised.

A beautiful evening at Cressington for the first league match of the summer season. Our A team ladies are playing their Division One match at home against Aughton tonight. Let’s hope for many more evenings like this!

Tickets for our ever-popular pre-season social event are on sale now! This year we’re holding it at Carlisi Sicilian restaurant on Allerton Road and it promises to be a fabulous night.

Cressington Tennis Club has been named CLUB OF THE YEAR by Tennis Lancashire.

A group of our members attended the Tennis Lancashire Awards Evening last night at Bolton Wanderers FC, where chairman Tony Desmond was presented with the award by Roger Draper, former CEO of Sport England and the Lawn Tennis Association.

The award comes after the club saw a 10-year vision finally come to fruition with the building of a new clubhouse. Now we have 175 active members, a fantastic social tennis programme and coaching for all ages. A proud moment for our club! 🎾
