Tennis – serve them up, slam them down!

Tennis is the perfect social activity. It can be played as singles or doubles, and allows you to socialize while exercising. It has been shown to increase mental alertness and critical thinking. And it is a great cardio workout. At the Cheverly Swim and Racquet Club, we are fortunate to have four of the finest red clay courts on the east coast. Although these courts are only available when the weather is good and the courts are dry, there are also har tru tennis courts that are always available and waiting for you!

When the clay courts are wet, or when the pool is closed, we ask that you do not walk or play on them. Instead, walk along the edge to play on the paved courts. 

When the clay courts are dry, we invite you to come start a racket! on a premier playing surface.

Tennis clinics for kids are back this summer! Clinics will start after school closes for the summer, on June 21,2021 and will run for six weeks until July 31, 2021.

Due to continuing restrictions, we will limit the number of participants for each clinic to 20. Clinics will be offered from Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 10am through 12pm. Any member between the ages of 7 and18 may participate in the clinics, regardless of their skill level. Younger members typically play from 10am-11am and older members from 11am until noon.

Tennis clinics are fun for all! We bring out the automatic ball machine, practice back swing and fore swing, and also play matches to help each player improve their game. If you don’t have a racquet, it’s no problem! We can help you out and provide one!

Tennis clinics are supervised by our Tennis Pro Bill Barnes along his very talented tennis staff.

Tennis clinics start after early morning swim practice and Guppy and Minnow lessons to allow for a fun filled sports morning for children and teens! Sign up for the clinics in the membership portal. We are offering different packages, if you want to test out the clinics to see if it is for you, then you can purchase one clinic for $10. We are also offering a pack of five for $45, a pack of ten for $85 or unlimited drop-in for $150. For those of you who have multiple family members who enjoy the clinics, we will also have the opportunity to buy family packs.

We will offer our regular individual and group tennis lessons. Any member can enjoy an individual, semi-private or group lesson. Please contact Tennis Pro Bill Barnes to schedule a tennis lesson. You can usually find him on the tennis courts, or you can call him at 240-462-5578 or email him at moc.loa@senrabw.
