Game, Set & Match for Lymm Tennis Club’s Open Day

Lymm Lawn Tennis Club served up a winning day for the community on Sunday, as its much-loved annual Open Day proved once again why it’s such a highlight in the local calendar.

Despite a rather gloomy weather forecast, the clouds didn’t dampen spirits, with a fantastic turnout of visitors heading along to discover everything the club has to offer.

From families picking up a racket for the first time to experienced players looking for a new home, the courts were buzzing – and several new members signed up on the day.

Founded back in 1881, Lymm Lawn Tennis Club is steeped in history, yet remains something of a hidden gem. Tucked away in beautiful woodland overlooking the village, its peaceful and private setting means many local residents are still pleasantly surprised when they discover it.

The Open Day gave visitors the perfect chance to explore the club’s impressive facilities, including its recently refurbished clubhouse and 13 high-quality courts. With around 500 members already part of the club, there’s a lively mix of tennis and social events taking place all year round.

Adding to the atmosphere, MIX56 was on hand throughout the day, providing the soundtrack and linking live into Harvey’s show – capturing the energy and excitement as it unfolded.

But Lymm Lawn Tennis Club is about much more than just tennis. It’s a true social hub, complete with a well-stocked bar and what many say is the best beer garden in the area – perfect for relaxing after a game or catching up with friends.

It’s easy to see why the club was recently named Club of the Year by Cheshire Tennis, recognised for its commitment to inclusivity, community engagement, and player development.

All in all, it was a fantastic day for players, visitors, and the wider community alike. If you’ve ever thought about joining a sports club, Lymm Lawn Tennis Club might just be the perfect place to start.
