We are situated on a 5 acre ground in Langata, 10 km from the Nairobi City Centre, a great getaway from a hectic day. Our internationally trained sports professionals offer tennis, swimming, soccer, rugby and basketball daily clinics and holiday camps from basic level to high performance, and matchplay for adult, junior and family groups. We are even able to reach out to the less fortunate, and learn to appreciate each other’s right to be on the same planet.
