Country Club Vibe For Everyone – Delray Beach Tennis Center
Country Club Vibe For Everyone – Article by Diane Feen in Atlantic Ave. Magazine
“Everyone knows that Delray Beach has a terrific tennis center on Atlantic Avenue. A few times a year you can hear the cheers and read about top notch players serving balls at 120 miles per hour…”
“But what most people don’t realize is that these courts are easily accessible to the public. And, you don’t have to live in Delray Beach to use them. All you have to do is show up with a racquet – or maybe not. You can either pay for court time (that is reasonably priced) or join and become a member…”
“The Delray Tennis Center is a breath of fresh air for anyone looking to play tennis, pickleball or just share the sporting camaraderie that the games entrust.”
“Under Jeff Bingo’s leadership the Delray Tennis Center (and DDST) has resurfaced the tennis courts, added doubles strategy summer camps and men’s and ladies’ leagues…”
“The Delray Tennis Center – in downtown Delray – is an oasis of purity and camaraderie. It feels like a country club with 14 Har-Tru tennis courts, four hard courts and eight pickleball courts. Activities abound every day – from adult tennis clinics to Round Robins and yoga classes for pickleball and tennis players…”

With tennis, you have to adopt a long-term mentality and always keep building for the future. When kids are young, steadiness wins (really, steadiness always wins), but as they get older, hitting with power and having a complete game become much more important. I always wanted my kids to have a complete game because I knew that it would pay off in the long run, even if they struggled to beat the steady players as juniors.
