Facts about tennis in Atlanta, GA

Atlanta is one of the premier cities for tennis, full stop. No matter what neighborhood you live in, from Buckhead to Ben Hill, there is most likely a local court where you can take tennis lessons. Between the neighborhood HOA’s courts, free public courts, and tennis centers, Atlanta court coverage is unmatched. Perkerson Park and Candler Park are two of the most popular free court options while Sharon Lester and Mcghee Tennis Centers are popular for more frequent and serious players looking for proper facilities.

Besides the court options, the weather and general enthusiasm for tennis in Atlanta make it so it is only natural to take to the tennis court. ALTA is the largest tennis league in the world and matches take place all year. Summers can of course be extremely hot but it is also somewhere you can play or take lessons throughout the winter. Any city where you can be on the tennis court year-round is sure to be a tennis hotbed, and Atlanta is no exception.

With MyTennisLessons you can purchase as many as 20 lessons up front with the knowledge that weather isn’t going to halt your progress.

We specialize in private tennis lessons and we find that packages are the best fit for everyone. Coaches get committed students, and students save money the more they buy up front.
