A small tennis club with four courts on Bond Crescent in Forrest Hill, on Auckland's North Shore, next to the Badminton North Harbour Centre. The club describes itself as a unique little club with a sociable feel, where a friend, a family member or a neighbour is welcome to come along and play.
The courts have lights for night play, which the club says can be switched off after 10pm. The club runs social and competitive tennis for junior and senior members, and it has interclub teams for players who want a more competitive environment. It also has access to qualified professional coaches for players who want lessons. Membership and club events are handled by enquiry.
Courts are booked through an online booking sheet. A player picks an available time and pays online with most major credit cards, and a pin number is sent to open the courts. The season runs from 1 September to 31 August, with tennis programmes all year round.
Our pick on the North Shore for a player who wants night tennis and a friendly club to join.
