The brief

COMMUNITY TENNIS PROGRAMME WITHIN SANDWELL PARKS June 2025 - March 2028 Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council is seeking to appoint a suitably qualified and experienced operator to manage 3 of its park tennis court facilities, including the provision of a welcoming and accessible community tennis programme.

Sandwell Council has benefitted from grant funding from the Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) to refurbish the existing tennis courts at: - Redhouse Park (5 courts) - Britannia Park (2 Courts) - Brunswick Park (4 courts) The works have included re-surfacing, re-lining, fencing repairs, new nets and the installation of remote access gates / keypads.

As part of the LTA grant funding and subsequent Cabinet approval, the Council is seeking to adopt a new approach to the operation and usage of these courts.
