Comment	I just started playing "social" tennis at Kelvingrove. Absolutely beginner friendly and you don't need to show up with anything other than the clothes you think you'd feel comfortable in. You can get changed in the pavilion, they give you a racket too, and the coach brings a big bag a' balls, and everyone is just there to play and hang about/chat, though you play a LOT! It's a fun 2 hour runaround for me! The website is a little out of date, as there's no Thursday session at the moment, so Tuesdays 6 to 8 and Sundays 2 to 4, except this Sunday cos Mela is on. [https://glasgowlife.sportsuite.co.uk/directory/kelvingrove-community-tennis-club](https://glasgowlife.sportsuite.co.uk/directory/kelvingrove-community-tennis-club) I'm aiming to go every Tuesday if you want to "buddy" up, can send me a DM, I can at least explain exactly what happens/to expect here or in a DM if you fancy it but get new situation anxiety, which I definitely do! It's really great because you get mixed around so you're playing varying degrees of ability however nobody has been much better than advanced beginner that I've played with/against so far. Hope that helps and DM me if you'd like to know more. I may also check out the Dodgeball at the Kelvin Hall tomorrow, that's at 8pm too. But I've never been, just having thought about it for weeks/months, so I can't recommend just yet. The organiser posts on here about it regularly!
