Hastings Tennis Club Website

Project overview

Overview
Hastings Tennis Club needed a fresh digital presence that reflected the energy of the club and supported its growing membership base. Their previous website lacked clarity, wasn’t mobile-friendly, and made it difficult for visitors to find key information such as memberships, coaching, and upcoming events. Our goal was to create an engaging, easy-to-navigate site that serves both existing members and new visitors.

What we did
We designed a clean, athletic visual style inspired by the club’s brand colours and the sport itself. The hero section features bold messaging and immediate access to high-value actions like membership sign-up and club tours. We structured the site so information about coaching, facilities, schedules, and tournaments is easy to access and clearly grouped.

On the technical side, we implemented a lightweight WordPress build with optimised images, semantic HTML, and fast-loading CSS. This ensures the site performs well even during peak seasonal traffic and remains easy to maintain through custom ACF fields.

Key improvements

  • Strong hero section with clear calls-to-action for memberships and tours

  • Clean, modern design that reflects the club’s sport and community spirit

  • Simplified navigation for schedules, coaching, and facilities

  • Enhanced performance and responsive layout for mobile visitors

  • ACF-powered admin tools for updating events and membership details

  • Structured SEO to support local search visibility in Hastings

Outcome
The new website positions Hastings Tennis Club as a vibrant, welcoming place to play and connect. With improved navigation, modern design, and clear pathways to membership information, the club is better equipped to attract new members and keep existing players engaged.
