Other Info

Private Lessons:

Court Reservations:

On the club website we have a chart posted of when courts are usually free for general Tennis and Pickleball play. You will be able to email Gordon to reserve a court up to 7 days in advance. You can also just walk on and play when the courts are free without having to make a reservation, but that will not give you priority over someone who has reserved the court already. 

Ball Machine:

We have a professional model ball machine available for rental during Hut hours, at non-group program times. Fees are $12/hr and $8/half-hour, or $85 for a family season pass and $60 for an individual season pass. Practice ball baskets are available at the Hut for free. 

The Tennis Hut:

At the Hut, members and their guests can borrow tennis racquets and balls or pickleball paddles and balls, rent the tennis ball machine, and get assistance in purchasing any tennis or pickleball equipment. We also offer the best tennis racquet stringing and re-gripping in town, which can usually be done within 24 hours if needed. The Hut will be open by appointment in May. In June and July, Hut hours will be: Mondays-Thursdays 8 a.m.- noon and 2-6 p.m., Fridays 8 a.m. - noon, and Sundays 8-11 a.m. and 2-5 p.m.. Saturdays the Hut will be closed. Contact Gordon anytime at (217)-778-8198 or email if you need assistance with any racquet sports matters.
