Quick court finder…
A local player has created a court locater app designed to quickly show vacant courts across multiple Islington tennis sites. It is free to use and once you have located an available court it links to the usual booking source. See:

If you can’t find a court on Highbury Fields you could try nearby Tufnell Park, Rosemary Garden and of course, the Islington Tennis Centre and Gym.
The Steering Group was set up in early 2012 in response to changes in the management of the tennis courts at Highbury Fields. We wanted the tennis professionals and the user groups who have made this such a strong tennis venue to have the chance to have their voices heard collectively and individually.
The group now has an active role in the management of tennis on the Fields.
This site provides basic information about tennis on the Fields with links to the various organisations providing tennis services.
