SANTA BARBARA has always had a strong tennis community beginning with the construction in 1937 of a large wood stadium and nine outer courts at the Municipal Tennis facility. Today tennis is enjoyed year-round on 28 well-maintained public courts. Located at 4 different tennis facilities, 17 of these courts offer lighted play weekdays until 9pm. Our mission is to offer reasonably-priced quality tennis lessons and programs with convenient scheduling in well-maintained facilities and to promote tennis as a lifetime activity. We make tennis as accessible as possible at the grassroots level. Our instructors are experienced, USPTA/PTR certified teaching professionals. PROGRAMS, GROUP AND PRIVATE LESSONS for all ages are offered year round at Las Positas, Pershing Park and the Municipal Tennis Facility. Each group session meets once a week for 4 weeks. If you would like to create your own class with a private lesson for yourself or friends that fits your schedule, please contact one of our instructors directly. ADULT ACTIVITIES Drop in on any Monday or Friday evening for Mix and Match, a popular round robin located at Pershing Park. USTA Leagues, tournaments and Cardio tennis are also offered year round.
