Thomas H Wood renews partnership with Radyr Lawn Tennis Club for second year

PROMINENT Cardiff estate agent Thomas H Wood has been announced as the lead partner of Radyr Lawn Tennis Club for the 2024/25 season.

 

This marks the second year that the family run sales and letting agent, with a showroom on Station Road in Radyr, will support its local club financially as well as providing prizes for fundraising events throughout the year.

 

Radyr Lawn Tennis Club was established in 1914 and aims to provide the local community with top-class tennis and social facilities which promotes and encourages participation in tennis for everyone.

 

The site is made up of 10 courts which includes a mix of Tiger Turf, artificial clay and hard tennis courts, along with two Pickleball courts. The Club has 500 members of all abilities including 11 doubles teams that compete in a host of Tennis Wales South Wales Leagues and 200 juniors who play in various matches and tournaments as well as non-competitive games.

 

Thomas H Wood was established in 1970 by Thomas Wood and is now managed by sons John and Paul. The company specialises in sales and letting in north Cardiff, including commercial and residential property, and also has a branch in Whitchurch.

 

Cliff Gardner, Radyr Lawn Tennis Club Chairman, said: “We are incredibly grateful to Thomas H Wood for continuing their support for us, especially being a local business themselves. Our mission is to create an energetic, progressive and sustainable tennis club to provide opportunities all year round, and without the generosity of our sponsors this would not be possible.”

 

Paul Wood, Director at Thomas H Wood, said: “Being a local business, supporting our local communities is of incredible importance to us, and so we are delighted to be returning to Radyr Lawn Tennis Club and continuing to support the work they do. After an already fantastic first year of our partnership, the club is set to enjoy another successful year, and we can’t wait to see what’s in store.”
