Tennis

The Southampton Tennis Club, founded in 1956 and operating each summer from Canada Day to Labour Day, offers a full range of programs on 15 courts in Southampton: 2 on Thompson Lane, 5 on Lake Street, and 8 on South Street. Membership is affordable and comes in welcoming combinations (for a week, a month, or the entire season as an adult, a junior, or as a family) and includes weekday junior and adult group lessons (no reservations or pre-booking for these lessons is required). Members can also satisfy their competitive urges in social round robins convened weekly: junior and intermediate age groups on Tuesday evenings, and adults on Wednesday evenings. Another great STC social and playing tradition for members is the weekday (10:00am - 1:00pm) "bench" at the Lake Street courts: simply show up and place your racquet in line on the courtside benches and when a court becomes available after a set of tennis you and the next three players on the bench can head out for some doubles fun. All levels welcome. Want more than tennis? Many social events off the courts attract members of all ages – BBQs, carnival days, the club's annual dance. Join today and enjoy great tennis, the chance to meet new friends, and a true sense of community involvement. For more information on memberships and programming, during the off-season call 519-797-5555 and in-season call 519-797-2445 or, better yet, drop by the main clubhouse at 165 Lake Street, Southampton during the summer. Make your vacation a hit at the STC!
