TEAM TENNIS
The Winter League is about to start. Good luck to all our teams – enjoy! And in the Summer season that’s just finished, congrats to our Mixed B and Men’s C teams for winning promotion, and to our Men’s team for winning the Midweek League. We’re proud to say that we’re very inclusive: only three clubs in Oxfordshire have more members involved in team tennis than Woodstock. We run teams across a wide ability range, so if you’re keen to play and are not yet in a squad, be sure to let us know: just send a quick note to the club email: woodstocktennisclub@gmail.com.
