The club, founded in 1937, continues to offer and encourage a sporting activity to church members and friends of the church. Club play is held on Saturday and Tuesday afternoons throughout the year, weather permitting, and on Wednesday evenings during the summer. Besides this we also enjoy some social activities such as a skittle evening and quiz night. Membership is open to all. The club’s facilities include the church tennis pavilion and changing rooms.

The Guild meets every other Tuesday afternoon for a varied programme of talks (some illustrated), demonstrations and so on. New friends can be made over tea and biscuits!
