Make the most of the Open Weekend
Whether you’re already part of the Better family or just curious to see what we’re all about, the winter open weekend is your chance to jump into a mix of free and affordable activities for all ages.

Across the UK, participating leisure centres are offering a fantastic range of extra activities. It’s the perfect opportunity to try something new, rediscover an old favourite, or simply have fun with friends and family.

The Hackney Parks team will be offering free adult bookings on Haggerston Tennis Court number one over the whole weekend.  Bookings are limited to 1 hour per customer and all bookings need to be booked in advance via the Better UK App.

Get your friends together and see who is the next Andy Murray, Serena Williams, Rafa Nadal, or Roger Federer.  Tennis provides significant physical and mental health benefits, including improved cardiovascular health, muscle strength, and endurance. It also sharpens cognitive skills like concentration and strategic thinking, while helping with stress management and promoting social connection. The sport can be enjoyed by people of all ages, making it a great option for a lifelong activity, and allowing all members of the family to play together in a social setting.

On top of all these benefits, it is also great to be able to get bragging rights over family members or your significant other.

We hope that you enjoy our floodlit, hard-court facility - stay active and have fun with your friends and family.
