First up is Cap’n Jimmy Campbell vs Cambridge alum Simon Fox, followed by Andrew Petrie vs Fred Satow and a night cap of Charlie D’Oyly vs Geoffrey Russell (best of three full sets Singles with none of this short third set business).

BBC1 Documentary featuring CURTC Mon 10:45pm
Martina Navratilova shakes hands with Sophie Morrill on the Blue court
The club will feature on BBC One next Monday!
Martina Navratilova’s recent trip to CURTC will appear towards the end of the new BBC documentary ‘Just call me Martina’ on BBC1 on Monday 4 July at 10.45pm, after the news. Sophie Morrill makes an appearance and represents the Club and Real Tennis perfectly.
I had the opportunity to see the documentary at the advance press screening and I found it fascinating. I would highly recommend it to you all.
This is a great opportunity to promote Real Tennis to your friends, so please let them know about it as well.

CURTC vs Canford: The Movie (and Photos, of course)
The Hyde’s Court was nice and bright but Canford was even brighter with an interesting mix of natural and artificial (sodium, I think) light. Well that’s my excuse for even more photos than usual and a ‘movie’ (after the photos). You can find it all HERE
CURTC stagger on to Canford – June 5th, 2016
The Home (in the UK) of Chase 8
Fortified by an assortment of fine dining, wine and whiskey (and I dare say a few beers) our intrepid CURTC travellers made it to Canford for the 2nd leg of their Dorset tour in more or less one piece. Andy Murray was due to play that other kind of tennis so would it be a day to remember or forget… The first thing to note is that Canford really does have a Chase 8… Read More
The Hyde, part 2

CURTC visit The Hyde, June 4th 2016
It’s quite a way and the ‘end of half term’ weekend is probably not the best one to choose but one of the more characterful Tennis Court awaits. It’s had a varied life including a tank repair depot during WW2 (the vehicle entrance is visible from the outside).
