About - Rye Racquet Club

ABOUT US

Since 1961 Rye Racquet Club has been a widely respected tennis club that offers top-notch tennis instruction, competition, and activities to a large dedicated clientele of players of all ages and levels. We’re located in the heart of Westchester County and just across the border from Greenwich, CT. We are open to the public (no membership fees). Our goal is to get every player in position to take their game to the next level through the variety of programs that we offer.

Adults – We have group clinics, women’s doubles playing leagues, iFit cardio tennis, introductory level workshops, men’s singles playing leagues, drop-in clinics, USTA, MITL & HVTL team tennis, private and semi-private lessons, seasonal courts and special holiday events.

Juniors – We have classes for ages 3-18, including 12 & under tennis (red, orange and green ball programs), Junior Development program for students 12 & older from beginner specific all the way through High School Varsity/Junior Varsity Training and High Performance Training, Johnny Gularte Development Program, Match Play Program, MITL and USTA JTT team tennis, our popular Summer Program and Special Holiday Camps.

Convenient Location – We’re easily accessible from I-95, the Hutchinson and Merritt Parkways and a very short walk from the Harrison Metro-North train station.

History – We’ve come a long way! Rye Racquet Club was established in 1961 as a 3 court tennis club. The following year, two additional courts were added. The club expanded again in 1974 when four outdoor courts were built on an adjacent property. RRC launched our junior program (Rye Tennis Academy) in 1973 with 60 students. We now have over 600 students enrolled in our weekly Junior Program and over 500 adults in the Adult Program!

Believe it or not… parents who once participated in our junior programs now bring their own children to learn tennis!

COURTS

You have your choice of surface here – both with high visibility LED lights.

5 Indoor Climate Controlled Plexi-Cushion Courts – the multi-layered plexi-cushion surface tremendously reduces the stress placed upon a player’s back and knees, while still providing a true and accurate bounce. The surface has been called the softest hard court available.

4 Har-tru Courts – the distinct cushion-like character of the har-tru court surface allows enough flexibility to be felt in the feet and legs, decreasing player fatigue, reducing injury, and easing physical stress during and after the game. An air structure is placed over our har-tru courts in the fall and winter months to allow for 12 months of play.
