and rugby union internationals, too. In fact,<br />
World Cup games in all three sports have been<br />
played here.<br />
Plas Kynaston Lane at Cefn Mawr may have a<br />
comparatively modest capacity of 2,000. But<br />
it’s home to the oldest football club in Wales,<br />
Cefn Druids. Once conquerors of mighty<br />
Bolton Wanderers in the FA Cup of 1882 and<br />
now playing in the Welsh Premier League.<br />

tennis<br />
We love our tennis. And not just during<br />
Wimbledon fortnight. The six indoor and 10<br />
outdoor courts at the North Wales Regional<br />
Tennis Centre in <strong>Wrexham</strong> are international-class.<br />
Our coaches will help you live up to them.<br />
Any time you fancy a knockabout, you can<br />
play at the courts at Acton Park and Bellevue<br />
Park in <strong>Wrexham</strong> or Ponciau Park in Rhos.<br />
Absolutely free.<br />

Waterworld<br />
Want to keep everything looking trim – including<br />
your bank balance? Just flash the Pure card at<br />
one of our leisure centres. It will save you 20%<br />
on most activities including swimming, gym<br />
sessions and fitness classes.<br />
Waterworld, as you might have guessed, is an<br />
aquatic centre. With a 25-metre competition<br />
pool, a learner pool, a 65-metre flume and a<br />
rapid-river ride. Which should liven you up nicely.<br />
In the Tropical Lagoon at Plas Madoc, you can<br />
walk the surf, ride the crocodile, slide down<br />
the snake and play in the waves. And you can<br />
let the kids have a go as well, if you must.<br />
Chirk has a pool, too. The perfect place to<br />
cool down after a stint in the sauna or steam<br />
room. A game of squash. Or a little Tae Kwon Do.<br />
