Latika JTC was founded in 1971 by a retired professional tennis coach. He started giving informal coaching to a group of children and soon developed a devoted following.
He formed the group into a club, and named it after a small community he had visited in South Africa. The club moved to the Farley Wood Community Centre in 1994.

The objectives of the club are to:

– introduce children to tennis
– develop their tennis skills
– provide a fun environment for learning.

Our membership exceeds 160 children aged between 5 and 18 who are organised in groups according to ability.

Various coaching sessions are run on weekday evenings and every Saturday.

Latika fields various teams in the National Junior Club Leagues. Many members have represented Berkshire with some having progressed to play at national level.

There is a full programme of both summer and winter club tournaments to improve match-play skills.
