Earliest records show that tennis came to Haverhill when St Mary’s Tennis Club formed in 1890 with matches being played at Place Farm. During the 1920’s the club courts were where the Leisure Centre now stands.  

Today Haverhill Tennis Club is adjacent to the Leisure centre and has 4 courts playing competitively in a number of leagues.  The club ethos is friendly and welcoming to players of all ages and abilities. 

The clubs' aim is to promote tennis throughout the year for all age groups, both adults and children, through social play, internal competition, matches and to offer professional coaching to any members who want to improve their standard of play.
