About MF Tennis

Welcome to MF Tennis. Since 2001, Head Coach Matt Fellingham and his team have coached players of every age and level at Royston Tennis Club, from tots picking up a racket for the first time to adults and competitive juniors. Around 300 players now train with us each week.

Our story

Would you like to improve fitness, have loads of fun, make new friends, and even add years to your life? Well, you have come to the right place.

MF Tennis prides itself on encouraging lifelong participation and a healthy relationship with sport and physical activity by delivering engaging experiences that empower individuals to lead happy and fulfilling lives.

All of our sessions offer a safe, fun and educational environment for you to develop and improve each area of your game, as well as learning new skills. We thrive on making each session fun, exciting and relevant to your needs.

Tennis is such an amazing sport: it gives you a full body workout, burns loads of calories and, best of all, is great fun.

We see players develop much better focus and listening, they become more resilient, learn fair play, respect and teamwork and just love playing tennis with their friends. And more than that, studies have found that tennis can extend your life more than any other sport, up to 9.7 years in fact. It’s not just the physical benefits but the sociable benefits that make this such a life-changing sport.

Qualified, passionate coaches

At MF Tennis, all of our coaches are passionate about helping you get the most out of tennis. We love to help others enjoy this great sport, and all of our coaches genuinely love the sport and want to share it with others.

MF Tennis has been helping players start and enjoy their tennis journey with camps, groups and individual lessons since 2001. With a focus on making technique easy and understanding ‘how’ the game works, MF Tennis provides lessons for tots all the way to adult players, helping with technique, strategies and enjoying tennis.

We are located at LTA Registered Venue, Royston Tennis Club. We are all qualified coaches, fully DBS checked, first aid qualified and insured, and have great experience at helping all players get the most out of this sport. From helping teach topspin to advising what size racket to get, we’re here to help your tennis enjoyment in any way we can.

Welcome Lewis!

We’re delighted that Lewis Thompson is joining the MF Tennis coaching team in January 2027. A former professional tennis player, Lewis is a qualified coach in both tennis and padel (Level 3 Tennis and Level 3 Padel Pro). Look out for him on court from the new year!

MF Padel

MF Padel launches in February 2027. Matt is Head Padel Coach at Rebound Padel, and Matt, Demetri and Lewis are all Level 3 Padel Pro coaches, so we’ll be offering padel coaching for all levels.

“Matt and his team provide fun and engaging tennis lessons. My two children (aged 12 and 9) look forward to their lessons and it’s great to see their skills improve. As a result I decided to join a group lesson too and hugely enjoy the sessions – always something new to learn via lots of different methods that keep the lessons interesting.”

“Fantastic experience with Matt and MF Tennis! Each coaching session is fun, engaging and makes you want to learn more!”
