Does anyone have any recommendations for the best places for:
1. Tennis lessons (never played before but played badminton and squash)
2. Play softball, flag football or basketball (Recreationally - yes I realise I am not American but I much prefer these sports!)
3. Horse riding lessons
I live in Amwaj, so something this side of the island would be preferable but lets be honest the islands not that big so its not a big issue if its not.
I have tried finding out myself but from my time in Bahrain so far I have found that word of mouth seems to be the best way to learn about clubs or places etc.
Thanks

Hello David.
Maybe you can try to post an advert in the Classes section (Sports classes) in the Bahrain classifieds. It can help. 
Thank you,

Hi David,
In addition to what Lulu_102 has mentioned, you may try also the following:
For Horse Riding, there are Bahrain Riding Club in Barbar Village and Dilmun Club Stables in Saar; they both offer regular classes at a reasonable rates.
For Tennis, try Bahrain Tennis Club in Juffair, you may find classes that suit your timing and budget.
Enjoy
