Hi.
I own a condo in Palermo Hollywood since 2017. Unfortunately I haven't been able to visit since late Jan. 2020 due to the pandemic but (fingers crossed) I am hoping by January things will be settled enough to travel (from Canada). We have very high vaccinations rates, (almost 90% of our eligible population 11 and up have received their first dose and above 82% are now double vaccinated mostly with both MRNA vaccines and a smaller amount of people vaccinated with AZ, which I believe Argentina recognises but I am double vaccinated with both mrna vaccines. By Jan. we should have well over 90% of the population fully vaccinated, including children above 5 as that approval is expected by the end of the month and school boards will be making vaccination mandatory (like with measles, rubella, etc).
My question is that I would like to join a tennis club that is in reasonable proximity to Palermo and has good courts (either clay or hard, doesn't matter to me. I play on both in Canda), and hopefully a good membership and professional instructors. Does anyone here have any recommendations? Should I consider the BA Law Tennis club (where the Argentine open is located), I am open to fees. I know the BA LTC it is a bit of a distance from Palermo but it's not too bad (I have walked it a couple of times to attend the Argentine Open). Has anyone played there and can provide me with some input on the club, fees, etc. I play at a private tennis club in Toronto but unforunately they do not have reciprocal arrangements with the BA LTC or any clubs in BA as far as I can tell. Any other recommendations that I may not be aware of and should check out?
Thanks very much. I monitor this website closely for up to date information in CABA, travel and find it very useful. When I was last there in 2019 to 2020 I attended the Wed. coffee chat several times so I may have met some of you. Thank you all for sharing your collective experiences. It's much appreciated, especially for this Canadian expat.
