Tennis Like Never Before

The Home of American Tennis officially opens to the public on Jan. 2, 2017, and it’s ready to provide a tennis experience like never before.

The USTA broke ground on the USTA National Campus back in April 2015 with one goal in mind: to enhance the sport at every level and create an unparalleled playing, training and educational experience for players, coaches and spectators.

And the 100-court, state-of-the-art facility situated on 64 acres of land in Lake Nona is ready to do just that.

The National Campus features a mix of hard and clay courts – both Har-Tru green and red clay courts, as well as indoor hard courts and 36- and 60-foot courts for family tennis – and houses the USTA’s Community Tennis and Player Development divisions. The complex is divided into dedicated areas (listed below) that focus on the complete tennis pathway – from the youngest players to recreational competitors of all ages and ability levels, and from collegians to future pros and professional tour-level players.

“By housing our two divisions devoted to growing the game at all levels, and training the next generation of players and coaches, we can have a greater impact on the sport than we ever had before,” said Katrina Adams, USTA Chairman, CEO and President.
