Clane Lawn Tennis Club was founded in 1972 by a group of local tennis enthusiasts! In the early years, the club operated out of Clongowes Wood College and enjoyed many happy years at this venue.

In 1983, the club moved to its present location on the Dublin Road. Initially the club had5 all weather concrete courts and a small pre-fabricated building serving as its clubhouse. The club introduced floodlighting to its courts in the late 1980's in order to provide its members with extended playing time.

In the late 1990's, the club upgraded its courts to provide artificial grass playing surface on all 5 courts and also built its new clubhouse offering comfortable club rooms, shower and changing facilities. Much appreciated by its growing membership!

The hard work and dedication of the club's voluntary committee was rewarded when Clane Lawn Tennis Club scooped the inaugural Eagle Star "Supreme Club of the Year" - an accolade the club is justifiably proud of.
