  1. Gregory Fields Tennis Club is a small and friendly local club at the heart of Highburton and Kirkburton – where new and existing members can always be sure of a warm welcome. The Club has three all-weather tarmac courts with floodlights making it possible to play all year round.

    There is also a modern purpose built clubhouse with kitchen facilities and changing rooms with showers.

    If you are interested in playing competitively, then we have two men's teams, two ladies teams.

    If you prefer to play socially, then we hold club sessions on Thursday evenings from 6pm and on Friday mornings from 10am. These sessions are an important focal point for the club and provide a great opportunity for members to come along, meet other players, mix in - and generally have a fun time!

    Andy Smith, our Level 4 LTA qualified Coach, runs an extensive coaching programme on Sunday mornings, which caters for children aged 4 upwards. He also offers individual or group coaching for adults.

    It is also possible to use the courts on a Pay & Play basis.

    Please see our website for full details.

    Big news……thanks to Kirklees Community Fund we are expanding our appeal and opening up the club to play Pickleball. We are at the early stages of this project though. We are awaiting court painting but in the meantime we have temporary markers and pop up nets and have had a members taster session which was very successful. Two members have also become coaches in order to help people get to grips with the game. We are launching on Weds 3rd April 2024 at 6pm on a pay and play basis (£3). Pickleball will also be available on the Friday morning sessions. Please email us for up to the minute info on gregoryfieldstc@gmail.com

    PS….it’s a game that can be enjoyed at any age!! It’s as fast or as slow as you want it to be.
