Tennis We are very excited to get back to some semblance of normal in 2021.

Thank you all for being patient and understanding during the COVID uncertainties. We appreciate the trust you have put in us to ensure the safety of all our members during this unique time. Now it is time to get our programming rolling! See you on the courts!

Court Update Our annual in-house clay resurfacing will take place the week of March 15th. It will be done in a staggered format therefore all courts will not be closed at the same time. Thank you for your patience as we work to improve your facilities! Also, the windscreens will be back up as soon as the overnight freezing temperatures are over.

Make Sure You Check In! As a reminder, you must check in to the pro shop before you get on the courts. The time slot is a guarantee, but the actual court you initially reserve may not be available due to unforeseen circumstances, i.e. maintenance, weather, etc. Thank you for your cooperation!

Ladies Tennis We are happy to announce our six Ladies Interclub teams and our Queen City team are kicking off their season on March 9 and March 11 with COVID restrictions as we had fall 2020. All teams are at full capacity, but there will be a round robin after spring season for new members and transitions between teams. Also, our Ladies Summer Fun Evening league will start back up in June. Stay tuned for more information.
