Seacourt Real Tennis Court History

Seacourt’s historic building and Real Tennis court were built in 1911 and were privately owned by local scientist and Real Tennis enthusiast Mr J F Marshall. Like many clubs of its kind, it fell into disuse and disrepair, with people’s priorities elsewhere during the war and subsequent years.

When a small group of Hayling residents re-established use of one of the world’s few remaining Real Tennis courts in 1966, they created a unique racquets sports club with a very special atmosphere. Since that time Seacourt has become a thriving sports club, with our Real Tennis court as a centrepiece and its multiple sports facilities having appeal to every corner of our membership as well as a bar and restaurant for socialising.

We recently held the 2022 Seacourt Silver Racquet tournament. This was first held in 1973 and attracts professional and top amateur Real Tennis players from all over the world.

Other major Real Tennis events taking place at the club this year are the British Ladies Open (April 7th-10th) and the World Junior Championships (August 22nd – 24th).
