Why it is special
Lahore Gymkhana Club is a members’ sports and social club on the Upper Mall in Lahore, Punjab. It traces its origins to 1878, when it was formed as the Lahore and Mian Mir Institute, took the Lahore Gymkhana name in 1906 and moved to its present 117-acre site, the former Gymkhana golf ground, in January 1972. The tennis section has nine courts: six grass and three hard, with floodlights on the hard courts. Court rules reserve one court for children in the afternoons and two for senior members in the evenings, and coaching is offered. The wider club has an 18-hole golf course, one of the oldest cricket grounds in the subcontinent, squash courts, swimming pools, a gym, a library and guest rooms. Play is for members and their guests; the club is affiliated with Karachi Gymkhana, the Islamabad Club and the Chenab Club.
