Closed Support the Rebuild of Batchwood as a Tennis and Golf Centre

Closed on

Britain's first public tennis and golf centre (opened 1988) was destroyed by fire during the early hours of Wednesday 10th August, 2011. Four youths have been arrested on suspicion of arson.

The local and wider community is devastated as 1000s of people loved and used this centre as it is the home for school children, families and budding tennis stars.

We want the facility to be rebuilt without delay to restore public indoor tennis provision in the district and for the LTA, government and local council to put an action plan to this effect with clear timescales and immediate action.
