Weather was perfect for our 2019 Tennis Nashville/Nashville Tennis Meetup Combo Doubles Social Tournament - bright sunshine and cool temps! The tournament ran smoothly, thanks to help from Greg Bates and Helen Neuhoff, but most especially with the help of Lindsey Pfuntner, who did a great job running registration and keeping up with scores and open courts. We also want to thank Dillon Hoyt and the staff at Centennial Sportsplex Tennis Center.
Prizes were awarded for 1st and 2nd place in these divisions:
In a first for Nashville Tennis Meetup and Tennis Nashville, we'll be sponsoring a fun 6 to 8 week Combo Mixed Summer Social Tennis League that will begin play on Thursday, June 6, 2019.

Since accepting the position of Tennis Nashville Association President in July of this year, I’ve been learning much about Community Tennis Associations and their purpose, making lots of phone calls and sending emails to fellow tennis friends and former board members, and surfing the web for answers, assessing our direction. Most every large city has a CTA and most are affiliated with USTA. CTA’s are non-profit organizations run by VOLUNTEERS, to specifically promote the game of tennis, build community relationships, and give back to the community and designated charities.
Tennis Nashville is proud to welcome two new members to the Board of Directors.
Jointly sponsored by Tennis Nashville and Nashville Tennis Meetup, the second annual Tennis Nashville Fall Classic Tournament was held on Saturday, October 21, 2017 at Centennial Sportsplex in Nashville, Tennessee. Sixty players converged on the courts for an afternoon of social tennis and eager competition on two levels, to compete for placement. Many of the players knew each other from Nashville Tennis Meetup, but there were quite a few newcomers who joined in, making a great day for both playing tennis and meeting new players in the community!
