Promoting a Sports and Recreation Club

Indoor club facilities commonly include adult pools, children’s pools, basketball courts, squash courts, and tennis courts. Outdoor facilities can include basketball courts and tennis courts. Sports and recreational clubs also commonly offer regular sports lessons with an authorized instructor. Generally; these lessons are given twice or thrice a week, individually or in group classes. Classes are offered in beginner, intermediate, or advanced levels. The classes commence with a group or individual championship for all students. Each student is awarded a certificate of completion at the end of the tournament.
