With a friendly and welcoming atmosphere, The Oratory Sports Centre offers an affordable membership gym ideally located on the school site in Woodcote. Without the intimidation of larger gyms, The Oratory Sports Centre believes this is the perfect location for people of all abilities and experience. 

The gym has relocated to a new position in The Oratory Sports Centre, with much more room to support social distancing as well as double doors to aid ventilation. The gym boasts beautiful views of our grass tennis courts.

The Oratory Sports Centre boasts 6 stunning lawn tennis courts. The grounds staff do a superb job of keeping the courts in pristine condition; thus, they are now closed until Summer 2025, when they will be available to hire during the school's summer holidays (Sunday 28 June - Sunday 31 August 2025).

The Oratory Sports Centre is home to one of just 26 courts in the country and is the original racquet sport from which the modern game of lawn tennis, or tennis, is descended.

Real Tennis is played in an asymmetrical court which contains many unusual features, sloping roofs, openings (galleries) in the walls and a main wall which has a kink in it (tambour).The game is played with racquets made of wood and hand-made balls and uses a scoring system similar to that of “lawn tennis” with the addition of a “chase”.

If you have any queries, would like to try the game or would like to join the club, please contact the Professionals on [email protected], or call them on 07375 898995.
