Membership
All are welcome to join. The senior club is open to those who are not members of Oxford University as well as those who are. (The majority of members are in fact non-university).
You can have beginners’ lessons and borrow racquets before you join, and the professionals will be happy to arrange a few matches as an introduction.

Important Information & Payment Policies
Full Membership & Direct Debit (DD)
- Please note that full membership subscriptions are eligible for Gift Aid relief, which benefits both the member and the club.
- Members who pay by Direct Debit (DD), or who choose to sign up for DD, will be able to spread the annual subscription cost over 12 months. This will amount to £30 per month, together with any court or lesson fees incurred.
- For administrative simplicity, the club’s preference is for members to pay by DD. Members who do not wish to pay by DD will continue to pay their annual subscription in full in July, as at present. If you wish to pay by DD but are not currently doing so, then please liaise with Alana.
- Please note that all new members will be required to pay by DD and that paying by DD does not allow one to opt in and out of membership as it is a means of spreading the annual charge over the membership year.
If any member wishes to set up a Direct Debit or create a Gift Aid declaration, or just adjust their contact details or communication preferences, they can do so by entering their email address on this page, and they will be sent a link to enable these changes.
Country / Occasional Membership
The subscription for this category is £95 per year and is payable in full regardless of when during the membership year it is taken out. This membership permits court booking rights and up to eight playing visits per membership year.
Student Membership
The student membership subscription is £80 if taken out before 1 January during the membership year, reducing to £40 thereafter.
Payment of Fees
All members, regardless of membership category, will receive a monthly statement showing any outstanding subscription, court, or lesson fees.
- Outstanding balances must be settled within 14 days of the month end (payments are collected automatically for members paying by DD).
- Members with unpaid balances after 15 days will receive an automatic reminder email.
- If balances remain unpaid 30 days after the month end, the member’s booking privileges will be suspended until the account is brought up to date.
We want all members to enjoy and make full use of the club’s facilities, and we appreciate everyone settling their fees promptly so that the club can continue to operate efficiently for the benefit of all members.
