Tennis in Carlow?

foxinsox

Hi All

I'm thinking of taking up tennis again, it's been a few years since I've played.

Are there any free courts in the town anywhere?

Are any of you members of Carlow Tennis Club? If so I'd like to hear what you think of it. I haven't checked out membership costs yet, so I'm not sure whether I'd be able to afford it or not.

Thanks for reading and hopefully you'll be able to help me out.

the only free court i know of is in tinryland.

I have no ideas for cost of membership of carlow. Could you get it of the web

Thanks Queen.. I'll check out Tinryland.

Ok, must have been tired last night when browsing internet, but found it today!

Their website says its €240 for membership.

So I'd still like to hear peoples experiences and if anyone else knows of free courts. I'd like to play a bit before joining a club. All good intentions at the moment but don't want to pay out money and then not play, I'm sure we've all done that at some stage.

There's a court in Mount Wolseley in Tullow which is free.

if you go in the morning or before the club opens you can generally play because the courts are not locked or that.
