  • Tennis Playground – SLGCC

    Tennis Playground – SLGCC

    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:

  • Tennis Playground – FRIM tennis court

    Tennis Playground – FRIM tennis court

    This is a pair of very nice public tennis courts located inside the Forest Research Institute of Malaysia (FRIM) in Kepong. It is less than 30 mins drive from KL city center to FRIM. Aside from tennis, there are other facilities/activites that you can do at FRIM like badminton, hiking, mountain biking on it’s trail, football, etc. The surrounding are full of trees & the oxygen quality here is pretty nice because of the surrounding forest. You can call up their office for bookings at 03-6279 7561. I would rate the courts here 8/10, it would be 9/10 if they had better lighting. My pictures doesnt do justice here cos of my cheap handphone camera & it was just after a shower, but this pair of courts are really beautiful & still very new by the time of this posting.

  • Tennis Playground – Sri Tiara Condominium

    Tennis Playground – Sri Tiara Condominium

    Sri Tiara Condominium is a service apartment located at Taman Seputeh, Kuala Lumpur. It is 10 minutes away from KL Sentral & Mid Valley. I love the tennis courts surface here but the night lighting is not good. I would rate the courts 8.5/10. To visitors who like to have a cheaper alternative than staying in hotels, this place would be a good choice

  • Tennis Playground – Angkasa Impian 2, Bukit Bintang

    Tennis Playground – Angkasa Impian 2, Bukit Bintang

    This is a private condominium court in the heart of the golden triangle in Bukit Bintang. It is located at Bukit Ceylon, just a row behind the Changkat Bukit Bintang nightlife area & its a really good place to stay in if you’re visiting Kuala Lumpur because all the nightlife & shopping areas are like 5-10 minutes away by foot.

    I would rate this court 7 out of 10. It’s a pretty rough hard court. The lights at night is pretty bad. The condominium is called Angkasa Impian 2 & it comes with a pool, gymnasium, ping-pong tables, children’s playground, squash court & mini market. The condo is about 50% occupied so good news for expatriates/visitors who are interested in staying here.
