Carisbrooke Roll of Honour
For over 100 years, Carisbrooke Tennis Club has been responsible for producing players of amazing quality, supporting the local community and providing a platform for volunteers to come forward and help the club and its members enjoy a good old simple game of tennis. This page serves to recognise and remember those people and thank them for their commitment to the Club and tennis in Leicestershire.

National Finals

3rd place finish!
Just when we thought it couldn't get much better following our amazing 5th place finish in 2018, the boys only went and smashed it again. Ably assisted once again, of course, by the Brooke on-tour posse....Well done guys, you are making Brooke history again.
