The Government is determined to ensure that everyone has access to quality sport and physical activity opportunities.

On 20 June, my Rt Hon Friend, the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, committed £400 million to continued investment in local sport facilities on 20 June, following the recent Spending Review. We will work closely with sporting bodies - including the Lawn Tennis Association - and local leaders to establish what each community needs and then set out further plans.

The Park Tennis Court Programme was a joint investment between the UK Government and LTA that started in 2022 and concluded in 2024.
