This is another university playground which we covered recently. These courts belong to Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia located in Bangi, Selangor. There are 5 courts here, most of which are in 7/10 condition & below. The surroundings at this sports area of the university is nice & full of greeneries. The courts here are for UKM’s students & staffs only so for most of us, the posting & pictures here are just for us to see & admire =).
Sungai Long Golf & Country Club is located at Cheras, Kajang which is around 30 mins drive from Kuala Lumpur city centre. This club is more well known for it’s Jack Nicklaus designed 18 hole golf course. There are two tennis courts here, one newly resurfaced 5 months ago from the time of this posting. The new court is perfect, I would rate it 10 out of 10 if not for the very distracting pool area & golf course on both ends of the tennis court fencing. If they were to cover the fencing with those Green cloth mesh then it would be fine. There are a row of houses right next to the court area and the tennis courts are next to a basketball court which is not good if there are people playing basketball as there are no fencing between them.
I dont know about the night lighting as I’ve only been here on daytime. Overall I would rate the court here 9 out of 10. This would be a great club to join if you’re into golfing as well. There are other normal club facilities like badminton, gym, squash & swimming pool. The club’s website is at www.slgcc.com.my & you can reach the club with the map below:
It has been nearly a year since the Titiwangsa courts in KL has been resurfaced & this place has been upgraded since we last featured it here on tennis.my. Here are some latest pictures from this wonderful public court which is in the middle of Kuala Lumpur. The courts here are very nice now but try not to book the 4 courts beside the road as they are a bit dusty. For direction to this place & other information regarding the courts, please click here
Two weeks back I had a chance to play at this nice club at Desa Park City that has 4 synthetic grass courts. The surface is soft for the feet but sometimes the ball & the player would skid. It looks like they have good drainage system around the courts but the drains are uncovered & balls can roll into them & would get wet if there is water inside. Anyway this is a members only club & if you’re around there & interested to join this club, you can checkout their official website at here . (more…)
