5 Stars

The Ellington Racquet Club is an awesome facility for players of all levels! The courts are consistently well-maintained, and the staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Their coaching programs and clinics are top-notch, with experienced instructors who cater to individual needs. Another great reason to play there, as I recently found out, that it is a solely women-owned business. A great success story that I can share with my daughters. Highly recommend this tennis center to anyone looking to improve their game.

My name is Geoff Abare and I am an avid pickleball player for over a year now.  My wife and I are also small business owners and we appreciate & support other well run local small businesses. Tracy & her team have a brand new, fantastic tennis/pickleball facility.  The club is spacious, very clean, plenty of parking and they are super nice people who are extremely easy to work with.  Some friends & myself (on short notice) planned a DUPR league here and they were totally  accommodating!  I highly recommend this facility and wish them all the success deserve!

Got a family membership for Christmas and this facility is fantastic! You have to go inside to fully appreciate all they put into it! Great facility that I’m glad to have so close!

Great new facility, friendly staff. Love that the lights are indirect and there's plenty of room along the baseline.
