The Standard Athletic Club is hidden in the forest of Meudon and easily accessible from Paris.
We are an international English-speaking sports and social Club set in exceptional surroundings.
This Club is the perfect place for all the family to play sports or just relax and enjoy the social life.
If you would like to find out more, send a mail to the Club at or call us on 01 46 26 16 09.
We look forward to seeing you soon.
There will be a Tennis Camp from Monday 19 to Friday 23 April for Juniors from 4 to 17 years old. Register using this link.
For players who are not members of the Standard Athletic Club there will be an additional fee of 5 euros per day.
In the Easter holidays from Monday 19 April to Friday 23 April, there will be a field hockey 'stage'. There will be hockey coaching in the morning from 10.30 - 12.30, then a varied programme of different sports and activities in the afternoon. See the main article for details and how to sign up.
The annual reconditioning of our clay courts is almost complete.
This year, with a new provider - Supersol, the company that supplies The French Open / Roland Garros with its signature red brick dust and crushed white limestone - we hope you will enjoy a unique experience. Works will be completed by Tuesday but the weather remains a bit chilly so we consider it preferable to leave the courts to rest for a couple a days to allow them to dry thoroughly before playing, therefore securing the tennis season. Consequently, please expect the clay courts to open Saturday morning.
Just as a quick - but important - reminder, the basic rules for the proper use of our courts are:
• Players should arrange for the court to be ready for the following players ON TIME. Meaning they should stop play 3-5mn before the end of the session.
• Players should use the net to sweep the courts each time AFTER playing, brush the lines if necessary AND water the court after sweeping. If no game before you, please water the court before playing AND after playing.
This way, we will ensure that all of us can enjoy optimal game conditions until the end of the season.
Take-Away Teatime is served on the terrace at weekends and during the week from 3 pm to 6.30 pm, but please note that one is not allowed to eat or drink on the terrace; please take your goodies down to the rose garden and avoid clusters (6 people maximum) anywhere in the Club grounds where possible.
Every weekend there is also a selection of delicious homemade cakes and biscuits on offer using only fresh ingredients freshly baked by Janine Springall.
In an effort to provide services to all our four-legged members we are delighted to offer a dog water bowl outside the front entrance after those long, thirsty walks in the forest!
(Please note, however, that dogs and other animals aren't allowed anywhere within the Club and grounds)
The Club is recruiting 3 summer interns from May to September. Candidates must be over 18, with a good level of English proficiency and currently enrolled in a university or college program. They will be covering various activities including social media, digital services, bar and facilities management. Please let us know on if any children, relatives or contacts are interested.
