City Tennis Clubs are the cheapest and easiest way to get playing tennis for the first time.
There are 25 spread across the UK and you can join at anytime. You don't even need to have your own racquet!
Here 15-year-old Justin presents a behind the scenes guide to the newest CTC in Coventry.

The club runs coaching sessions, tournaments, teams and matches.
Anna, my coach has told us about trips they ran last year to Wimbledon, The Nottingham Open and The Albert Hall. I hope I get the chance this year!
Phil, Anna and James are the coaches and are really cool, but they do my head in when we do fitness work!
What's the best thing about it?
The best thing about going to my tennis club is learning and improving my tennis skills and socialising with my mates.
How long have you been playing?
Lleyton Hewitt is Justin's favourite player
|
I've been playing tennis for about a year. I play tennis because I think it's cool and fun and I get to play with my mates.
My favourite shot is a smash and I like playing doubles. My favourite player is Lleyton Hewitt.
Why should others come and join your club?
Anyone should come and play here because our club offers a wide range of tennis activities and has a friendly environment.
Lots of my mates still think we just play for during the two Wimbledon weeks but tennis is cool because it's exciting and anybody can play.
