One of our members, Marion Paton, organised a tennis festival for local primary school children in May. The day was a great success with club members and coach Killean helping out.

Tennis Fun Day July 2019
Our President opens the courts after the COVID shutdown. Smiles all round.
All ages have fun at Duffus - Winners of the Veterans Tournament 2019
The club runs championships every year for all abilities, culminating in Finals Day. These ladies were very happy to have a Finals spot!
The club will soon be coming up for its centenary!
Here's a copy of part of our 2019 Club championship programme . Finals day in September was a busy day - barbecue and refreshments help us along. The handicap system means that many club members can take part and reach the finals, while the open competitions see some titanic battles on Finals Day.
We like to recreate the Wimbledon experience for those at home. Members who join British Tennis have the chance to enter the Duffus Tennis Club draw to buy real Wimbledon tickets.
Welcome to new members
Two former junior stars - as senior members now, they are still dazzling us with their tennis.
Tennis Fun Day - one of our summer holiday events for juniors
Some members making the most of the light nights.
And now we are playing under floodlights. Currently we have lights on two courts but with new courts, we would have lights on three.
Lots of damp weather and rain = no tennis.😢
The club is allocated 6 or 7 pairs of Wimbledon tickets every year for members to purchase. These are allocated through a ballot - who will be lucky this year?
Some of our trophies date back to the 1920s - a great honour to have your name on these!
Making good use of courts during the freeze of Jan 2021
Our press cuttings from previous years show that we are a lively competitive and social club. Fascinating to read of former glories and to see weel-kent names of the club.
We look forward to adding to these in the years to come.
