The Royal Tennis Court, located at Hampton Court Palace, boasts a rich history dating back to 1526 when the first court was built for Cardinal Wolsey. It has been the site of royal tennis play since 1625, with three walls of the current court originating from the 17th century and the fourth being part of Wolsey's original structure.
Real tennis, the game played here, features unique hazards and complex strategies that have remained largely unchanged since the time of Henry VIII. The court serves as a vibrant hub for a club of over 500 members, welcoming players of all ages and abilities to participate in various tennis activities and social events throughout the year.
