Tennis in Sutton
No clubs on Courting here yet, and eleven public court venues across the borough.
Sutton still has free park tennis, which most of London no longer does. Five parks are open to anyone who turns up: five courts each at Carshalton Park and Rosehill Park West, four at Cheam Recreation Ground, two apiece at Roundshaw Park and Royston Park. No booking page, no fee, eighteen courts.
The other eighteen are the six premier sites the council refurbished with the LTA, run by Courtside at £6 an hour or £45 a year for a household. Neither half hands you the other three players, which is the bit that actually decides whether the hour was worth having. That is what Sutton clubs use Courting for: it takes the booking, composes doubles that stay even, and keeps a club night rotating so nobody spends it watching.

Tennis in Sutton: common questions
- Where can you play tennis for free in Sutton?
- Five parks: Carshalton Park, Cheam Recreation Ground, Rosehill Park West, Roundshaw Park and Royston Park. The council describes all five as free to use, where you can just turn up and play, so there is no booking page and nothing to pay. Between them they have eighteen courts.
- What is the difference between Sutton's free courts and its premier courts?
- The premier courts are the six sites the council refurbished with the LTA: Beddington Park, Corrigan Avenue Recreation Ground, Cuddington Recreation Ground, Mellows Park, Stanley Park and Sutton Common Recreation Ground. Those are booked ahead and cost £6 an hour per court, or £45 a year for an annual pass covering a household. The five free sites sit outside that scheme, and are neither booked nor charged for.
- Which Sutton park has the most tennis courts?
- Carshalton Park and Rosehill Park West, with five each, and both of those are free. Among the bookable premier sites the largest are Beddington Park and Cuddington Recreation Ground, with four courts apiece.
