Social Tennis
Members and non-members welcome, free of charge — just bring a racquet and appropriate footwear. (€5 on the first Tuesday of the month for refreshments.)
Kilternan, Dublin 18 · Est. 1936
A great social atmosphere in the community
Three all-weather floodlit courts, year-round coaching for every level, and a small friendly membership that's built KPLTC into one of South Dublin's most welcoming clubs.
Why join KPLTC
A small club with a big community
Six reasons members keep renewing year after year.
Three all-weather courts
Floodlit, year-round play. No more cancelled matches when the weather turns.
Friendly membership
Small enough that you'll know names; big enough that there's always a game.
Coaching at every level
From total beginners to competitive league players. Group, individual, junior.
Inter-club leagues
KPLTC fields men's and ladies' teams across the season — competitive without being intense.
Always something on
Social tennis nights, junior tournaments, friendlies, club events — all bookable on Hello Club.
Affordable membership
Four tiers including a non-playing Pavilion option. Pro-rata mid-year welcome.
