The inaugural Courted event. A weekend of serious tennis, nature, and long unhurried gaps between sessions, yours to spend as you please.
The Founding Weekend is now allocated
Reserve bookings only, and rooms are extremely limited
The Programme ↓
The Long Table on Saturday brings every guest together at one table. The Founding Cup on Sunday, played to a finish.
Arrive for the tennis, stay for the company.
The Programme
Sessions run in waves, in small groups matched strictly by level, with a coach-to-player ratio built for real attention: not a queue for the ball machine. Eight to ten hours on court across the weekend, and the hours between waves are yours, for a one-to-one, the pools, or the forest.
Friday
Arrival
Arrival at leisure. First introductions, welcome drinks, and social tennis.
Saturday
On Court Up to 6 hours
Tennis through the day for you to join as you wish, including drills covering serving, groundstrokes, net play, point building, and cardio tennis. Followed by competitive match play to put these skills to the test.
The Long Table
One dinner, every guest, seats drawn by lot.
Sunday
Brunch Tennis 2 hours
Everyone's favourite: brunch tennis. More drills, more match play.
The Founding Cup 3 hours
The closing tournament, drawn on the day and played to a finish. A trophy, a prize, and the photographs that will follow us around for years.
One-to-one sessions are charged separately, at member rates, and booked directly with the coaches on the weekend. The programme above is indicative and will be confirmed in final form by our head coach nearer the date.
How We Coach
Sessions led by our three coaches: Nitish, Sal, and a third whose name we are keeping for the weekend. Deliberately small groups, streamed strictly by level, intermediate and advanced throughout.
Games-based warm-ups, maximum time on the ball, and every block ends live: real points played from set scenarios.
Bookable on site between sessions: a full hour, one coach, whatever you most want to fix.

Worth Knowing
Every guest has their own bedroom. Lodges hold two, three or four bedrooms, some of them ensuite, and we arrange who is where around who would like to be together. Single sex lodges for anyone who would prefer one.
Center Parcs Woburn Forest in Bedfordshire, an hour from London and a world away from it: 365 acres of forest, the pools, the spa, and the lodges among the trees. Explore the village
The lodges are block booked Friday through to Monday. Most will arrive Friday evening and leave Sunday evening; some will come Saturday morning or stay through Monday. Come and go as your weekend allows.
The Founding Weekend is for players. Every guest is on court, every guest is at the table. Nobody watches from the side.
The Founding Weekend stands alone, with nothing further to commit to. Courted membership opens afterwards, and Founding guests hear first.
The Company You'll Keep
Every Courted room is chosen, never assembled. Guests are selected for their tennis and for their company, so a weekend that opens among strangers closes as anything but.
This is the first of a calendar that will run through England, Europe, the Middle East and further still, and the people who play the first will always have first refusal on what follows.
The list is short, and has been considerately drawn up.
The Reserve List
The Founding Weekend is allocated and we are taking reserve bookings only. Tell us which room you would prefer and we will send you a link to pay the £300 deposit, which holds your place. The balance is settled once final numbers are in and we know which room we can offer. Rooms are extremely limited, and a preference is not a guarantee.
