Club History
From a merger of two local clubs to one of Scotland's top sports facilities.
1991
Strathgryffe Tennis & Squash Club was constituted as the result of a merger between Elderslie and Bridge of Weir Tennis Clubs, and remains a non profit making members' club.
1992
A new site was found on the outskirts of Houston. With the proceeds from the sale of club grounds at Elderslie and Bridge of Weir, an L.T.A. loan and Sports Council grant, the new club was built: a modern, well appointed clubhouse with lounge and bar area, 2 glass backed squash courts and 6 outdoor all weather courts. It was officially opened by the Chairman of the Sports Council in May 1992.
1997
At a total cost of around £750,000 — with an interest free L.T.A. loan of £220,000 and a Lottery Sports Fund grant of £350,000 — additional facilities consisting of 2 indoor carpeted tennis courts, a fitness room and the resurfacing of the existing hard courts were officially opened.
2008
An additional 2 indoor courts, with a total cost of around £950,000, were officially opened in July 2008.
Today
Our facilities comprise clubhouse and lounge/bar, 4 indoor tennis courts, 6 outdoor artificial grass courts, 2 glass backed squash courts, fully equipped gym and games room. All tennis and squash courts are LED lit and provide a fantastic playing experience.
