Facilities

Not only is it our ambition to improve playability, but we also work to help implement sustainable operating models and activity to safeguard the future of tennis in parks for many generations to come.
Whether you are a Local Authority or Leisure Trust, not-for-profit group/operator, or club seeking to develop a satellite venue, we would love to hear from you.
Tennis Scotland Facility Funding
To submit an expression of interest in the Parks Renovation Fund, sign up now.
Tennis Scotland, sport scotland and the LTA are working together to deliver The Transforming Scottish Indoor Tennis Fund which will see a significant investment into Scottish tennis facilities over the course of the next 10 years, with £15m committed by this partnership, for the development of indoor tennis centres in Scotland.
We want to work with organisations that are as committed as we are to developing indoor tennis facilities, and to ensuring that more people have the opportunity to enjoy the sport, all year round – whether they are a social player or a future champion. We want to convert an interest in the game into active participation.
Priority will initially be given to projects which involve a minimum of 3 indoor courts and funding of up to 66% project costs is available up to a maximum of £250,000 per court. The fund will be delivered through a series of funding rounds each year. If you would like to discuss an indoor project further please complete the Expression of Interest Form and read the funding guidelines.
