The Challenger Ampang

No one is going to laugh at your miserable serve as players here range from rookies to national team elites. The Challenger gets top marks for using rubberised mats as well as providing hot showers, quick bites at the cafeteria, and large projector screens for live football and badminton matches. The Cheras branch is the most established (20 courts), and there’s futsal, table tennis and snooker facilities on the side too. You’ll find men in their fifties tossing forehands with surprising swiftness – these seasoned pros can point you in the direction of a private coach or a place to get your racket restrung. For something more affordable, The Challenger also provides in-house group lessons starting from RM120 per month.
