Tennis

Liberty's nationally acclaimed tennis staff helps each individual player enjoy tennis as a lifelong sport, whatever his or her athletic ability. Tennis is the cornerstone of Liberty Athletic Club, providing exercise, competition, and plenty of enjoyment. Our well-deserved reputation as one of the nation's top tennis clubs is founded on a state-of-the-art teaching facility and a customized approach to instruction, one that allows players to learn and advance at their own pace. Our coaches are dedicated athletes and experienced professionals who have developed many nationally ranked players and adult USTA champions.

We believe you're never too young—or too old—for tennis. Whatever your age, whatever your level of expertise, you'll find that Liberty offers classes, clinics, and organized activities just for you. That includes youth tennis for children as young as 4, and adult tennis instruction for all skills levels.

Private and semi-private lessons are available to members and non-members. We also offer a complimentary half-hour evaluation with one of our tennis professionals, who will recommend the right tennis group or league for your level of play. We invite you to learn more about our many instructional and competitive programs, including Youth Instruction, Junior Competitive, Adult Tennis, and Adult Teams & Leagues.
