Questions about visiting a club

How do I find a club that suits me?

Use the city or club search, or choose a place from the Cities list. The club cards show the same details here and in each city directory. There are 527 listings on this page.

What does a club visit cost?

A membership or single-visit amount is available for 35 of the 527 listings here. These are separate fees: read the programme, currency and payment period beside each amount. Ask the club about any price marked Unknown before booking.

Where can I see the meeting days?

Meeting days are recorded for 230 of the 527 listings. Read the session name as well as the time: lessons, casual play and tournaments can use different schedules. Dated events and venue opening hours are labelled separately in the details.

How can I find sessions for children or beginners?

Age-group information is available for 179 of the 527 listings. Check the minimum age and playing level in Details. If age or level is missing, it is not clear whether the club can accept a particular player; ask about the session you want to attend.

Can I try a session or take lessons?

Look for Teaching, Trial lesson and Trial visit in the expanded card. They describe different offers. If an offer is listed, check its programme and fee; if it is unknown, ask the club whether a first visit or lesson needs booking.

Which address should I use?

Read the address label on the card. Playing venues, postal addresses and event venues have different purposes. The map shows recorded locations where usable coordinates are available; confirm the venue for the session if several addresses are listed.

How do I check or correct the information?

Open Sources to see the URL and recorded check date for each available detail. Unknown means no source gives this detail yet. Report a change with the club name and a public source if something has changed.
