Free tennis courts in Belfast?

Hi there, just back from a visit down south with relatives where we played alot of tennis and now I'm hooked! Trouble is, I can't afford to pay membership for joining a club and was wondering if anyone knows of any free public courts I could use?? :confused:

    Glad to know they're still there - I used to play on them years ago. There was a charge then, but only a couple of quid.

    There were also nice grass courts in Musgrave Park (near the hospital)
