Tennis activities for everyone

We are a very friendly and very active (social and competitive) tennis club in Ōtaki, Kāpiti. We have tennis activities and events for all ages, abilities and interests running 12 months of the year.

Come and hit tennis balls with us!

Facilities

We have four astroturf (artificial grass) tennis courts, and competition-level LED court lighting, giving our growing tennis community facilities to be proud of. We also have open access to two, nearby, hard courts.

We have comfortable, sunny and spacious clubrooms overlooking the courts, with a large kitchen and a licenced bar. We have large changing rooms with showers.
