    The website is working for me :confused:

    Sorry none in Scotland. If you can play for free on your courts already, great.
    We would be charged £8 p/h or more for a not so good quality park court down south.

    It seems that the website has been changed and fixed since the first post. It comes up with plenty of options now (including Scotland).
  • on going, but includes free coaching as well. Not many venues from the drop down list, but lucky for those in the right area's.

    The coaching is open to anyone aged five years and above and equipment is provided for the sessions should those without racquets wish to take part. Although mainly aimed at beginners at tennis, ability – or lack of – is not a bar. No prior booking is required, but TFF advises that advanced registrations should be made online at www.tennisforfree.com/register.php.

    What We Do

    We work with schools, tennis clubs and local authorities throughout the UK giving children, young people and families the chance to learn and play tennis for 50 weeks of the year FOR FREE on Public Park courts (as part of our free coaching programme).
    We've also profiled every public park tennis court in the UK, and, those that are FREE, are listed on this website to enable you to find your nearest free tennis courts, allowing you to just turn up and enjoy a game.
    Tennis For Free's objectives are to launch 50 NEW TFF sites in public parks nationwide increasing participation by 10% over the next 3 years, a true legacy for British Tennis!

    May be quicker to log onto your local council web-site to find free courts in your area.

    None listed in my area which is odd as I have played on a number of free courts near me.

    I do like the idea though.

    There are free courts in Norwich, but they aren't listed

  • Would love to participate but nothing in Bridgend South Wales:(
    Nearest one is 14 miles away - too far costs wise. Any one know of any courts nearer to me please?
