The Queens Tennis Club was formed in 1886. It is the headquarters for Real Tennis and rackets. The Club annually hosts the Fever Tree Championships. The clubs was the world’s first multi-sports venue and is named after its first patron- Queen Victoria.
Though most famous for the excellent Tennis facilities the club has also held events in Rugby, Baseball, Athletics and even Ice Skating. Up to 10,000 spectators gathered to watch the Rugby matches between Oxford and Cambridge in the early twentieth century. Though these events were eventually forced to be relocated to different arenas in the local area- lawn Tennis stayed and has been the financial support to keep the historic venue going. As well as the Stella Artois Championships, Queens Tennis club is also home to the British Open and the World Rackets Championships. The club boasts 28 of the finest lawn Tennis courts anywhere in the world, 8 indoor tennis courts, 2 Real Tennis courts, 3 Squash courts and 2 Rackets courts.
The club has an extensive museum documenting the illustrious history and traditions the club is proud to uphold. There is also an exceptional restaurant and café. A membership at Queens Tennis club is one of the most sought after honors in the modern game. Barons Court Underground is only a short walk away.

Good afternoon.
I would like to recommend that John Lloyd and Andrew Castles days have come to an end, and it is time to allow some of the younger tennis players to have a go at commenting,rather than these two who just read off stats going back to the 70s and 80s .
They talk all through the matches and they have had their time.
It's time for a big change.
Thank you
