Payhembury Tennis Club is one of the few sporting organisations in the village and has a single tarmac court situated in the playing fields. It has a history going back 30 years when the court used to be grass. In modern times the tennis club has recently been successful in a bid to improve the facilities and surface and has become a registered “place to play” with the Lawn Tennis Association.
There is an adult club night where people of all ages and standard come to play some friendly tennis and usually end up down the local pub for refreshments.
The club also holds an annual American Doubles tournament in July to coincide with Wimbledon and this is open to anyone to enter. The club also runs Junior Tennis Coaching from April to October for children from 5-16 years old and is run by a registered LTA level 2 coach.
People wanting to play on the court should use the booking sheets that are held at Payhembury Provisions and there is a small charge for non members. Membership forms can also be obtained from the shop and becoming a member of the club enables the court to be well maintained.
