Tennis Club

(Updated 01/15/2008)

Tennis Drills: Tennis drills at Bitsy Grant continue!  Tennis drills will take place each Thursday evening from 6:30 pm – 7:30 pm and each Saturday afternoon from 1:30 pm – 2:30 pm.  No reservations are needed and the fee will be $12.  There will be a tennis pro overseeing the session to feed balls and provide some basic feedback but it is not a formal coaching session.  As everyone’s schedule varies quite a bit, this will provide at least one, if not a few, opportunities for everyone to get some court time.  Bitsy Grant Tennis Center is located at 2125 Northside Drive, Atlanta, GA, 404-609-7193.

Cardio Tennis: We have a new activity in addition to the tennis drills at Bitsy Grant – cardio tennis!  The PGA Superstore is now offering cardio tennis classes twice a week on Thursday evenings and Saturday mornings and they are FREE!  Here are the details:

• Thursdays from 6:30 pm – 7:15 pm
• Saturdays from 10 am – 10:45 am
