About Us
A club is nothing without members and Duffus is blessed with a good company of members ranging from
the very young to the ageless, active, social member. Club tournaments are well attended and have an atmosphere of fun and
enjoyment, although there are sufficient members willing to play competitive tennis to field two gents teams and two
ladies teams in league tournaments.
The club currently has over 100 members but is always on the look out for new members
and hopes that this number will continue to grow.

Tennis courts
The club benefits from four fantastic courts, recently relaid in sand/astro-turf surface. They provide
an an all-year round playing surface that allows play in sure-footed confidence in dry, wet and even pretty cold
temperatures (if you are really keen). The courts are situated within Duffus Park next to the children's play area. They
can be accessed via Carslogie Road at entrance near bowling club or from Perth Road (up the track signposted Douglas
Bader Gardens).

Floodlights
The club have recently invested in state of the art floodlights which provide clear, crisp light.
Two of the four courts are floodlit which allows late night playing and play throughout the year - even in the darker
months. The club is currently actively pursuing the possibility of illuminating a third court which would be beneficial
for the early season league matches as well as increasing the number of courts available to members during the winter
months.

Clubhouse
There are lots of things you could say about the clubhouse, a whole list of things, like, ummm...Yes...
it has charm, a history - a story to tell
an elegance, character (a funny smell)
OK we're being kind! Let's just say it's not state of the art and leave it at that.

Practice Area
The club also has a practice area where you can practise while you wait for a
court to become free or your partner to arrive. It also provides endless opportunities to lose copious amounts of
tennis balls to those sweet, adorable pooches, otherwise known as police dogs, in the police station next door.
(Don't ask for your ball back!!).
