Squash clubs along Green LUAS or Stillorgan area

kingdiarmuid · 2011-01-24 16:08:02

I am living in Stillorgan and played squash and tennis for many years before moving to Dublin. I want to join an active squash club perferrably with tennis courts (but this is not a deal breaker) I have looked at Westwood but at €75 a month is too expensive, the only other alternative I found was Mount Pleasant. Is there…

Is there any other clubs either on the Green LUAS or near Stillorgan?
Are there any running new member promotions? cost is a factor for me.

Thanks for your help

Is Sandycove too far? We're cheaper than Westwood and probably relative to Mount Pleasant.

I often play at Mt Pleasant and it is on the G line of the LUAS (ranalagh?)

AFAIK it is pretty active with Squash and is indeed with tennis and has a good crowd there- nice and open not the typical snobby tennis crowd.

Plus I think they have good deals at the moment with new memberships
in these recession times.

If I lived in Dublin this would be the club i'd join - for sure.

They also have a good bar, table tennis + a proper sized snooker table!!

LCC (Leinster Cricket Club, but don't let the name put you off) has both a squash section and a tennis section. It is a few minutes away from Mt Pleasant. Members can get a key to give them access from Mt. Pleasant Avenue to save them having to walk around to Rathmines. Currently €200 for first years membership, which gives access to all the sports (Tennis, Squash, Bowls, Cricket, Table Tennis). Check out the LCC Tennis website and/or the main LCC Sports website for details.
