They are the only ones in Argentina and for that reason many great argentinians players have trained here before going to Wimbledon. Initially, a number of courts were available and they were all grass courts  until 1912 when a group of member requested the construction of a clay court so that tennis could be played all year round. Today, the Club has 12 clay courts today, and lawn for 6 grass courts. <\/p>\n<p>Our members keep up the \u201cwhite tradition\u201d of the sport through the use of tennis clothes that are mainly white in colour, and of course maintain the tradition of \u201cfair play\u201d that has been a distinctive symbol of our Club since it was founded. Traditional tournaments such as \u201cGrass\u201d and \u201cClay\u201d are played annually, and these activities are crowned by an important ceremony at the end of each year.<\/p>\n<p>The Hurlingham Club was among one of the very first members of the Argentine Tennis Association which was founded in 1921. Some of the important competitions that have been played at the club are the \u201cMasters de Menores\u201d and the \u201cCampeonato Rep\u00fablica de Veteranos\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Squash is the other racket sport that is played at the club. With an annual tournament, Squash at the club is considered to be a gentleman&#8217;s game. White dress code is still required, as in Tennis, making the british escence untouched.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_gallery gallery_ids=&#8221;1684,1991,1686,1688&#8243; show_title_and_caption=&#8221;off&#8221; show_pagination=&#8221;off&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.12.2&#8243; border_radii_image=&#8221;on|5px|5px|5px|5px&#8221; box_shadow_style_image=&#8221;preset1&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px|&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||-50px|&#8221; zoom_icon_color=&#8221;#635d5d&#8221; hover_overlay_color=&#8221;rgba(255,255,255,0.9)&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;||0px|&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_gallery][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.12.2&#8243; header_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; header_2_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; header_3_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;10px||10px|&#8221; saved_tabs=&#8221;all&#8221; global_module=&#8221;2474&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h2>History<\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;http:\/\/hurlinghamclub.com.ar\/clubweb\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hurligham-club-tenis-history-s.jpg&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.12.2&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;10px||10px|&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.12.2&#8243; text_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;13px&#8221; header_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; header_2_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; header_3_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; header_4_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;justified&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;10px||10px|&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong>&#8220;Writing free verse is like playing tennis with the net down\u201d \u2013 R.
