The Venue


The current building designed by local architects "Birkin-Haward" is a geodesic "dome" (from which it takes its name). It was built specifically for the club thus providing a purpose built facility.

The unusual "dome" shape allows an enormous amount of head-room to give the ideal playing conditions. The available playing area is about 18x12 meters which is divisible into a number of configurations by movable nets suspended from wires about three metres above the floor. Illumination is by specialised two per table overhead lights.

This layout meets the highest standards set by the ETTA and gives the best playing conditions available locally. Our equipment consists mainly of "rollaway" tables manufactured by Donic and Butterfly. For the top-level matches the building can be devided into two international sized netted courts meeting ETTA Four-Star standard. For practice and social play the venue can cope with five tables.

There are also kitchen and shower facilities available.
