<strong>The</strong> History of the<br />
<strong>Ennis</strong> <strong>Lawn</strong> <strong>Tennis</strong> &<strong>Badminton</strong> <strong>Club</strong><br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Ennis</strong> <strong>Lawn</strong> <strong>Tennis</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Badminton</strong> <strong>Club</strong> was established in 1982. It was the culmination of talks that led to the<br />
amalgamation between the run down <strong>Tennis</strong> <strong>Club</strong> <strong>and</strong> the thriving <strong>Badminton</strong> <strong>Club</strong>.<br />
<strong>The</strong> cost for the work needed to develop the entire site was estimated at £98,000, an enormous sum at the time.<br />
<strong>The</strong> developments included:<br />
Buying the stone from the mill next door which was about to be knocked down. This stone was used to<br />
elevate the site which flooded every winter, <strong>and</strong> create a new car park.<br />
Building a new clubhouse with 2 badminton courts, dressing rooms, showers, toilets <strong>and</strong> a gallery<br />
overlooking the courts.<br />
Constructing 2 new hard tennis courts with new fencing <strong>and</strong> floodlights.<br />
Building perimeter fencing with a gate for security.<br />
This work was completed in Nov. 1983, <strong>and</strong> another hard court was installed in 1984. <strong>The</strong> club flourished in both<br />
tennis <strong>and</strong> badminton. In junior badminton it produced many internationals with Donie O’Halloran going on to<br />
become a Senior International. <strong>The</strong>re were <strong>and</strong> are still many social events, competitions <strong>and</strong> tournaments.<br />
In the early 90’s the l<strong>and</strong>scaping was completed <strong>and</strong> floodlights were installed on court 3.<br />
In Jan. 1994 there was severe flooding in <strong>Ennis</strong>. All 3 tennis courts were submerged <strong>and</strong> water lapped up to the<br />
clubhouse door. A storm also damaged the west wall of the hall<br />
It was decided to build two state of the art artificial grass courts (4 & 5), with floodlights <strong>and</strong> drainage, twenty<br />
eight inches above the existing car park, at a cost of £66,000 Euro. <strong>The</strong>se were completed in 1995.<br />
In 1997 the original courts 1, 2 & 3 were elevated to the same level as the new ncourts 4 & 5, with a green acrylic<br />
surface, <strong>and</strong> by 2002 these were also covered with artificial grass. <strong>The</strong> entire cost of developing the 5 courts was<br />
250,000 Euro. <strong>The</strong>re have been many improvements since <strong>and</strong> the club has currently 400 members.

Oliver Moylan <strong>and</strong> the Chamber of Commerce raise approx £1,000 for the <strong>Tennis</strong> <strong>Club</strong>. This provided funds to<br />
repair the nets <strong>and</strong> fencing, cut the grass regularly on the P & P course, <strong>and</strong> provide a caravan to be used as a<br />
changing room.<br />
<strong>The</strong> 2 hard tennis courts along with the 9 hole course were renovated. Subs £6 Adult membership, £10 Family <strong>and</strong><br />
£3 Junior.<br />
Oliver Moylan h<strong>and</strong>s over the keys of the caravan to the President Rev Sean Moriarty. <strong>The</strong> cost of repairing the old<br />
Pavilion would have been £2,000.<br />
Trustees of the <strong>Tennis</strong> <strong>Club</strong> met with the Chamber of Commerce <strong>and</strong> Rotary members , on how to revitalize the<br />
<strong>Club</strong>. A special committee was set up to build a new clubhouse <strong>and</strong> sports complex (including squash), but only<br />
one badminton court. A possible link to the <strong>Ennis</strong> <strong>Badminton</strong> <strong>Club</strong> was proposed. Meetings were held with Tom<br />
Eade, Gerry Bredin <strong>and</strong> Mick Molloy of the <strong>Ennis</strong> <strong>Badminton</strong> <strong>Club</strong>.<br />
In September Rev Sean Moriarty told the <strong>Badminton</strong> <strong>Club</strong> that the <strong>Tennis</strong> <strong>Club</strong> does not wish to amalgamate.<br />
However in October the <strong>Tennis</strong> <strong>Club</strong> asks the <strong>Badminton</strong> <strong>Club</strong> to join them on an equal basis.<br />
Rev Sean Moriarty bites the bullet <strong>and</strong> goes for the merger. He was concerned that the <strong>Badminton</strong> would take<br />
over <strong>and</strong> that the tennis would disappear. He need not have worried. In 1982 he was transferred to Co. Offaly<br />
after being in <strong>Clare</strong>castle fo 18 years. He became an Honorary Life member of the <strong>Club</strong> in 1982 <strong>and</strong> used to<br />
regularly visit the <strong>Club</strong>. In 1995 he blessed the new omnicourts. He returned again in 2000 for the Fergus LTC<br />
reunion. He passed away in 2005. He was the Mens Singles <strong>Tennis</strong> Champion in 1948, 1956, 1965, 1973 <strong>and</strong><br />
1975. <strong>The</strong> <strong>Club</strong> will be eternally grateful to this amazing man.<br />
A £9,000 grant was approved by <strong>Clare</strong> <strong>County</strong> Council. Planning Permission approved for new clubhouse<br />
<strong>Tennis</strong> <strong>Club</strong> Championships <strong>and</strong> tournaments back again. <strong>The</strong> last Pitch <strong>and</strong> Putt competition is held.

A joint committee was set up to organize an EGM in April 1982, to seal the amalgamation <strong>and</strong> write a new<br />
Constitution. This was headed by Tom Eade <strong>and</strong> Gerry Bredin. <strong>The</strong>y were asked to design the new clubhouse<br />
with 2 badminton courts, dressing rooms <strong>and</strong> showers, <strong>and</strong> a viewing gallery, 3 new tennis courts, floodlights,<br />
security fencing <strong>and</strong> a gate (to curb v<strong>and</strong>alism), <strong>and</strong> an elevated car park (that would not flood every Winter) .<br />
Planning permission, grants, bank loans, new Trustees , tennis <strong>and</strong> badminton committees, a Management<br />

<strong>The</strong> costing came in at £98,000 (approx 500,000 Euro) <strong>The</strong> clubhouse, tennis courts, <strong>and</strong> grounds, funding etc<br />
were completed by Nov 1983. An amazing achievement.<br />
