Free tennis games on the community courts

Wimbledon may have come to an end but that does not mean that your tennis dreams should thanks to Frome Town Council, Frome Selwood Tennis Club and national charity Tennis for Free.

The organisations are working together to make tennis accessible for all no matter what your age or ability.

Both coach-led and open play sessions are available throughout the week on the community courts on the Mary Baily Playing Field.

The open play sessions take place on Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays from 3.30pm to 6pm, and Wednesdays from 10.30am to noon.

It's completely free to join in the fun, you just need to make sure you book. Find out more about Tennis for Free in Frome on their website.

Frome Selwood Tennis Club is also asking for residents to share their views on their proposal to install floodlighting to the Community Tennis Courts.

The club's aim is to significantly extend the use of the courts over the year so they can be used all day during the winter months.

This would enable junior after-school tennis to continue through the winter and provide more availability for the public and club players during the darker months.

According to the club, the lighting scheme will be designed to minimise any light falling outside of the court area and will be of modern low-energy design.
