Beckenham Tennis Club is part of Beckenham Cricket Club, one of the premier multi-sports clubs in South East London and North West Kent. Beckenham Cricket Club, founded in 1866, is a unique sports club located in the heart of Beckenham with a history of sporting achievement dating back over a century.
The excellent sporting facilities, a thriving social calendar, an extensive selection of real ales, wines and club food, create a warm and friendly atmosphere enjoyed by all social and sporting members.
All of our sections can cater for a wide variety of standards of player, from county level players to the "enthusiast".
The cricket section run three senior sides on Saturdays (playing league and cup cricket) and two sides on Sundays (playing "friendlies"), as well as a number of junior sides, catering for players of all abilities. During the summer the club holds its "cricket week", a five day festival of cricket and social functions. www.beckenhamcc.co.uk
The Primary Club
Beckenham Cricket Club is the founder and home of "The Primary Club" (see http://www.primaryclub.org/main/history.php), the cricket charity so strongly publicised by the late Brian Johnston. www.primaryclub.org
The hockey section fields seven mens, four ladies and one mixed side regularly, as well as a wide variety of junior sides. Tours and festivals are regularly organised along with a number of social events. www.bromleyandbeckenhamhc.co.uk
The running section offer opportunities for both cross-country and road-running, entering various competitions and welcoming runners of all standards. www.beckenhamrunning.co.uk
The squash and racketball section has four heated courts where members play club, league and friendly matches, with coaches available for junior and senior members. Racketball is increasingly being played at the club as well.
The football section plays on Saturday afternoons and Sunday mornings during the cooler months.
Beckenham can cater for the "armchair" sportsperson just as well as those looking to participate in sports. You can join as a "social member" with full rights to use the bar and facilities, without having to worry about someone trying to make you run around outside!
The fully licensed bar is open from midday to 3pm, and 5pm to 11pm seven days a week (all day at weekends), offering great beers and food.
