Beach Haven Sports Centre is a community sports hub at 29 Cresta Avenue, Beach Haven, on the North Shore. It has four public courts with artificial turf, all floodlit, so they can be used through the year. The courts can be used for tennis, futsal, football and hockey, and nets can split them into two playing areas. Outdoor courts are open from 7am to 10pm daily, and drop-in use is welcome. The centre is also home to Shepherds Park Squash Club, which has four indoor squash courts, table tennis tables, and free racquets and balls upstairs. The squash club's website says it has a strong record in Auckland competitions and hosts four tournaments each year.
Membership is available for both clubs. The Beach Haven Tennis Club offers pro-rated, discounted memberships for new members, and regular bookings or night-time access go through Hello Club. The squash club says its memberships are affordable, and that casual visitors can hire courts by registering and paying online to receive an entry PIN. Parking is at the end of Cresta Avenue. The car park gate closes at 10pm, and indoor squash courts can be booked at any time, but the gate is locked from 10pm to 7am. Court prices are listed on the squash club's website. For someone in Beach Haven who wants squash, tennis or a turf court for a casual game, the centre has options all year.
