membership
If you're thinking of joining a tennis club, look no further! We are always looking for new members to join the club. We suggest to either come to the club on Adult Club Night every Wednesday from 18.30 onwards or Junior Club Night every Thursday during term time from 16.30-18.30. The first visit is on us for free, try us out, play some tennis, meet some existing members and chat to the committee member or coaches on duty.
If you can't make Wednesday or Thursday evenings, please click here to email the club to arrange a suitable time.
We run an induction programme for all new members to help them integrate into the club and find the most suitable level of tennis or integrate you into our teams if team play interests you.

Free British Tennis Membership
The Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) is providing a unique opportunity to members of LTA affiliated clubs such as Stony. The LTA offers you FREE membership to British Tennis, its membership programme. This membership and benefits are only free to members of affiliated clubs such as ours. Joining British Tennis means becoming part of the British Tennis Family of 1 million-plus members. It means building a strong foundation for a winning British game. It means being recognised for your contribution to tennis. It means supporting tennis from the grass roots to Centre Court.
As part of your membership of Stony we encourage you to sign up for British Tennis Membership to become a part of the future of British Tennis. Please do so at here and you link your membership to Stony Stratford tennis club.
British Tennis Membership is an individual membership scheme for adults and juniors who play or have an interest in British tennis. People who sign up to the scheme receive individual benefits and become part of the British tennis family. Benefits include entry into our club's ballot for Wimbledon tickets; an LTA player rating; the opportunity to access additional packages including other world class tennis events and a TeamCard loyalty card that lets British Tennis Members earn points when they shop with TeamCard's partner retailers.
Club affiliation is in effect "club membership to the LTA". Clubs join their county tennis association and as a result the club and its committee or management receive a number of benefits. Benefits include comprehensive cover through the LTAs liability scheme protecting clubs and their committees; legal and financial advice available on demand through the BASeline service; the opportunity for club teams to compete in both county and national leagues; and access to a network of county offices and a wide range of expertise covering facilities, talent identification and development, club school links, coach support and competition. Part of each member's annual subscription to SSLTC is used to pay the club affiliation fee to the LTA.
Wimbledon tickets Please note that your clubs allocation of Wimbledon tickets will be based on the number of your club members (adults and juniors aged 9 and over) who have signed up as a LTA Advantage Tennis Member.
Wimbledon tickets will only be available to Advantage Members. Look out for emails from the LTA in the autumn on how to opt in for the ballot.
