Salmiya Club
I had a meeting tonight at the Salmiya Club and when I got there the club soccer team were practicing so I spent some time watching them. It made me really miss playing soccer, the last time I played was during high school. Although I have been living in Salmiya all my life and passed the club from the outside like a million times, I never imagined the club was this huge from the inside. They have the largest soccer field in Kuwait, they also have 2 small ones, 4 outdoor and 1 indoor tennis court, squash courts, a large pool and bunch of other stuff. I was completely flabbergasted (this is officially the biggest word I have used this year), since I had no clue the place was this cool.
Monday I am going back to play some indoor soccer. I also might start going there to play some tennis and squash with Nat. I can’t believe I never bothered to go into the club before..
Here is the club on Google Maps [Link]
you were busy checking shawarma restaurants ;P
Damn, now I am going to getting really nostalgic.
When I was there getting some tennis coaching , Nadi Al Salmiya used to be one of the top teams in the league. Jasim Al-Huwaidi and ofcourse Bashar Abdullah are both the products of the club. It was nearly impossible to get in when Qadisya played dont know how the club is doing now.
Bah how I prefer 40c sunny weather to -3c snow storms.
lol :)
Sounds cool…Is there a membership fee for joining or do you simply show up and play? Is there a gym there also?
I haven’t been to a sports club in Kuwait for ages!
Nice! Just wondering if you have to pay to play? Is there a basketball court? Is it for both men and women?
Thanks!
do they have a shuttle badminton court…
Hi! I need to know if one can rent the salmiya stadium for an event like a group sports day.
