With two top-notch competition and training facilities, the Bulls are never at a loss for court time. Out of the success of hosting the World University Games in 1993, the University at Buffalo formed the University Tennis Club at the Ellicott Tennis Courts, home of the UB Bulls men’s and women’s tennis teams. Nestled amongst hardwoods and adjacent to Ellicott Creek, the 13 Plexipave hardcourt tennis complex is host to some of the best Division I tennis action in the Northeast. During the summer of 2005, the courts got a complete makeover, including a new blue and white surface to correspond with the team colors.

The club features active tennis programming for the family and has hosted to numerous USTA events. In addition, the club has served as the host site of the Section VI High School Championships and the Empire State Games Qualifying Tournament along with an assortment of club activities. Collegiaately, the club has hosted the Mid-American Conference Championships twice, the women’s tournament in 2008 and the men’s tournament in 2009. As Buffalo’s weather sometimes dictates, UB’s teams also call Williamsville’s Miller Tennis Center home. There, the teams can use the eight indoor courts ensuring that no competition or practice session is lost to inclement weather.
