This is my local tennis club and I feel it is worth a mention on this website. It was actaully…read morevoted Leinster mid-size Club of the Year 2005, and was runner up in 2006. I've been a member since I was about five years old. I started off having beginners lessons with my school friends. The club is very accomodating for younger ones, and the club coach Kieran is on hand to develop their interest. He takes the tennis lessons in a fun manner, not just pushing the kids to get the serve perfect, but developing their overall athletic ability, involving fun and games. Summer camps are held in the months of July and August. These are great fun, with water fights, rounders and more. All-day tennis is just too much for kids. For teenagers there are social competitions in a round robin format in summer and winter. These allow everyone to get to know each other, while having a friendly competition. There are also teams and the coaches work hard with the people who want to seriously pursue tennis. For adults there are teams to join. They play in leagues. There are also social evenings, with pizza afterwards. The courts are open all the time so members can play when they like (competitively or friendly!). One of the great things is that non-members can pay a small fee and then are free to play a game. There is something for everyone at this club.

He really seems to know how to talk to and encourage excitement and joy to do his training drills. Very nice manner and professionalism. Will definitely come back and hope to sign both of them for summer camps in July if that goes ahead.

Although they've expanded in a big way across our little Island, this Dublin city centre store still is sill the best of the lot. From Leitrim GAA Jerseys to Connaught sweatshirts and the latest football strips from the UK and beyond. They do more then the above though, with Elverys stocking everything from Archery equipment to darts as well equipment for lesser played sports, in Ireland anyway, such as cricket and squash. Worth a look if your looking for that hard to find county jersey or if you take up baseball.
