Lawn Tennis

The Institute operates a Tennis Club for all who would like to play tennis and supports all abilities. It has two newly refurbished grass courts that operate for May to October each year. Also, it has one newly build artificial grass court with floodlighting that can be used all year round. The courts are available to members throughout the week to use, except for short periods when coaching; grounds maintenance, organised sessions. Club sessions are organised throughout the year:

  • Tuesday & Thursday Evenings from 5:30: Mixed Doubles
  • Saturday afternoons from 2:00: Mixed Doubles
  • Wednesday afternoons from 2:00: Ladies

Walking Netball

Walking Netball sessions are designed to be fun and flexible, and largely follow the same formats as any other netball session, including a warm-up, mini-games and drills followed by a friendly game.

We play outside on the all-weather court and the sessions are led by England Netball trained hosts. There is an annual membership fee of £12.00 to join both the Institute and the Chilwell Institute Netball club. The session fee is £3.00.

Sessions are Wednesdays – 6.15pm to 7.15pm and Thursdays – 1.30pm to 2.30pm

Walking Football

In 2022, we joined forces with Nottingham Bramcote WFC to run sessions for women and men here at CMI every Friday morning and it has been a huge success! Walking Football is for anyone who may find the running version a tad tiring or downright exhausting! Having said that WF still raises the pulse rate and is a great way to get fitter, have fun and meet new people.

Most of our participants are over 50 but there are no age limits. You do not have to come to every session – just come when you can. It is £3 per session.

We run two sessions: Women 9.30 – 10.30 and Men 11.00 – 12.00.
