Tennis in Islington
No clubs on Courting here yet, and four public court venues across the borough.
Islington is unusual in having indoor tennis: the Islington Tennis Centre on Market Road keeps six covered courts and two outdoor ones going all year. Add the eleven floodlit courts at Highbury Fields and smaller sites at Rosemary Gardens and Tufnell Park, and there is plenty of court time in the borough.
What there is never enough of is a reliable game. Courting runs the matchmaking for Islington clubs: it composes fair doubles, keeps waiting players moving through the queue, and surfaces games you can join, so a wet Tuesday indoors still turns into a proper set rather than a chase around the group chat.
