Play Tennis

How to book a court, buy an annual pass, or find a coaching session to improve your game.

Stockton-on-Tees is home to three parks with tennis courts:

  • Littleboy Park
  • Ropner Park
  • John Whitehead Park

The courts have been renovated and now have a booking system and gated access, which helps make securing a court to play on easier than ever.

We Do Tennis CIC is operating the courts and offer a range of coaching and tennis activities.

The improvements to the courts have been managed by the Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) and funded by the Government and LTA Tennis Foundation as part of its Park Project. The additional funding for Ropner Park was funded by the LTA. The additional funding for Littleboy Park was funded by the LTA, Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council and Thornaby Town Council.
