WREA GREEN TENNIS CLUB is now in its 63rd year and remains a popular sporting venue within the village. Situated in Mill Lane, the Club is open to tennis players from both the village and beyond; it currently has approximately 200 members. The Club was founded in 1956 on a piece of land donated by the Birley family who at that time lived at The Villa, Wrea Green. Originally consisting of one hard tennis court and a pavilion-style clubhouse, the Club has gone from strength to strength over the years and now has three all-weather courts and a pavilion, opened in 1999, which was built with the help of money from the National Lottery. The Club is affiliated to the Lawn Tennis Association.
