Club Loans

improve their facilities. Since its launch the scheme has supported 14 projects with a
value of £170,000. Registered venues located in Warwickshire can apply for a loan
from Warwickshire Tennis up to the value of £20,000 for tennis or padel projects to
pump prime or fill funding gaps. For more information or to request an application

discretion of the WTL Board.
