Three things to know before you book
What will it cost me?
Per player, per 90 minutes, peak and off-peak. Member rates and racket hire shown separately.
Can I actually book it?
Some clubs are open to all. Some give members first pick. Some won't let you in without joining.
Will I get rained on?
Indoor, covered by a canopy, or open to the sky. In Britain this matters more than the price.
