DLTA, or the Delhi Lawn Tennis Association, is the top tennis body in Delhi. There are many professional programmes running there and coaching and training facilities.
There are 16 hard courts and 2 grass courts, a swimming pool, gym, and a pro shop too within the campus.

Helpfulness
The commonwealth games 2010 held in the city, have meant a lot of new sports infrastructure being created... New and rennovated stadiums are littered all across the city now. Its a challenge on how to utilise this fresh capacity now that the games are over.

Membership can be corporate membership, or even temporary 3 months and daily casual usage options.
Equipment: Golf clubs and balls can be rented... for most other sports, you get your own stuff.
