Churton Park Tennis Club is a family-friendly club in a sheltered gully of Lakewood Reserve, at 15 Lakewood Avenue in Churton Park, Wellington. It was established in 1977 and has been part of the suburb as it has grown. The club has three floodlit plexi-pave courts with night lighting, and it says it is working to become the social hub of Churton Park. Members can use the courts for free, and the club says non-member access is coming soon. Courts are booked on a first-come, first-served basis, and the website advises booking a court in advance.
Membership includes juniors and adults at every level, from beginners to strong players. The club runs a coaching programme led by a head coach, along with open days, club competitions, tournaments and social events. Paid members can enter interclub tournaments. The club also has a strong youth team and regular club nights, and it is an incorporated society governed by its own rules. The committee meets on the second Tuesday of each month, and the club is on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, and can be reached by email.
