The Tennis Center offers programs for almost any age and ability. For players looking for team or individual competitive match play, we offer tournaments and a variety of League play opportunities. Leagues include; In-house Centennial singles play, Adult USTA team, NALTA and MTTL women's singles and doubles.

We offer year-round Junior Clinics, Adult Clinics, and Private Lessons. The teaching staff teach you the techniques and tactics to improve your tennis game. Whether you are a beginning, intermediate, or an advanced player, we teach you the right tennis skills for every level of play.
