We are carrying out a review of tennis in Essex.  If you have an interest in Essex Tennis please assist us by completing a short survey.

25th Anniversary Blackmore Tennis Club

Blackmore Tennis Club was started in 1987 by three keen tennis players in the small village of Blackmore near Chipping Ongar.   The club has just 2 courts but fabulous sports and social club facilities .  For a small club it has now evolved to run 3 mens teams, one mixed team and one ladies team in the local tennis leagues - Brentwood & District Summer league and Stock Winter League.

Chelmsfordians Girls Doubles Tournaments

Alan Coulthard from Chelmsfordians Tennis Club ran a very successful and enjoyable Girls Doubles Tournament - all players were aged between 12-16 years.

The 2012 Bryan Watts - Eddie Kirtland Invitation Singles Event was run over the weekend of the 6th & 7th October at Redbridge Sports Centre. This event is now firmly fixed in the Essex Tennis Calendar and involves the Top Senior Players and invited Junior Players playing in a 16 Entry Forwards/Backwards Matchplay Tournament.

Draw sheets, result cards and contact information for the ECLTA Inter Club Competitions are now published on this website.  Please go to the 'League and Competitions' Tab on the Home Menu and click on 'Results and Draws'.

Around Essex in 10 Days

Some of you may know that previously, I’ve completed two long distance walks to raise money for children’s charities.  Despite a few unpleasant after-effects, those experiences haven’t put me off and being now lucky enough to work with children who have plenty of love and support, I find myself thinking about those who are less fortunate.  So, I am planning to do a third walk at Easter next year.
