Help Us Resurface Loddon Tennis Courts in 2026

Aim

Help us resurface Loddon's courts for safe, inclusive tennis for all ages. Support our community and double your impact with matched funding

Loddon Tennis Club is a friendly, inclusive community where hundreds of people — juniors, beginners, league players, walking tennis players and families — come to learn, play and enjoy the game.

But our courts are now worn, uneven and increasingly unsafe, especially through winter. To keep everyone playing safely, resurfacing is essential.

The Good News: The local council has agreed to resurface the courts in 2026 and to cover most of the cost — a huge win for the club and the community.

The Challenge: The council has asked for a financial contribution from the club. That’s why we’ve launched this Crowdfunder.

Every donation brings us closer to safe, modern courts that will benefit the whole community for years to come:
juniors learning the basics adults playing social or competitive tennis walking tennis players needing stable footing new players discovering the game families enjoying affordable local sport

Your Donation Goes Twice as Far

We’re incredibly lucky that Councillor Kay Mason-Billing has agreed to match our fundraising, up to £2,500, using her entire allowance from the Norfolk County Council Members' fund — every donation is doubled until we reach that amount.

That means:

• £10 becomes £20
• £25 becomes £50
• £50 becomes £100

We have until early February to reach our target 🎯

Why This Project Matters

Without resurfacing, the courts will continue to deteriorate. That means more slips, more unpredictable bounce, and ultimately less safe, less enjoyable tennis for all.

By donating today, you’re helping ensure:
safe, high-quality courts continued growth of junior tennis accessible, inclusive sport in Loddon a thriving community club where everyone feels welcome
