What you should know about Stoke Tennis Club
By October of that year a deputation waited on the Marsden Recreation Committee and sought permission to fence in a piece of ground marked out as a tennis court 'and to carry out other small requirements. ' In 1910 the club went back to the Marsden committee asking for permission to lay a second court and in 1911 it decided it needed a third. In those early days club members used a court or courts at Stoke school if rain had made play impossible on the dirt or grass courts but by 1912 the club was given permission to put down an asphalt court of its own. Mr Paterson went out of business and left somewhat hurriedly for Auckland, and no one had collected the trophy. The search took him about three months but he finally found it in the basement of a house in which Mr Paterson had lived.
The finances were swelled by some very successful dances but interests in tennis seemed to be on the wane. Twenty years later Jack Cameron and Ron Smith remain two of the club's longest serving members and their interest and work have contributed much to the progress achieved in the years since. Ron Smith and Barry Rhodes came up with the idea of lighting the courts for night tennis and the annual general meeting of 1967 authorised the project to proceed. The cost was just over 1,00 and by November of that year night tennis, thanks to the initiative of the Stoke Club, had come to Nelson.
The move to the present site at Greenmeadows was complete by 1968 and after many years grass play again became a feature of club life. More importantly, a club that moved to Greenmeadows in 1968 with about 20 members now has 115 senior players, 30 intermediates and 78 juniors enrolled for mid week coaching. The club is now part of the Stoke Community Centre re development and looks forward to being part of the new Community Hub building. Enthusiasts for the game, they have also done sterling work for their club and their community
