March News – Tennis
After a long, cold winter we’re looking forward to a busy spring here at Pebble Creek Tennis! We are hosting a Jr. Challenger tournament March 19 – 21. It will be a great opportunity to showcase our club! We will also be hosting a Jr. State Championship tournament April 9 – 12 in which we are expecting over 200 Jr. players from across the south! If you or someone you know would be interested in sponsoring one of these events, please call us at the tennis shop. A sponsorship is a great way to have your business recognized by the loyal and affluent tennis community !
Despite the cold temperatures, the spring league season is under way. There is still time to join a team! If you are looking for a team, call us as the shop and we can direct you to a team captain.
Please call the shop for your court reservations. The clay courts have taken a hit this winter and we will be working hard to have the courts playable as soon as the weather cooperates.
Spring clinic groups for both juniors and adults are now forming. Mark and David are also available for private lessons. Call the tennis shop for information!
A very special “Thank you” to Charlie Thompson for changing the lights on the hard courts! And thank you for giving us the opportunity to serve you!
