Welcome... to Olde Providence Racquet Club
Rich in Tradition. Renown for Excellence. The Carolinas' most
treasured tennis club awaits you!
For more than half a century, we at Olde Providence have made it
our mission to create the ideal environment for tennis lovers. We
cater both to the tennis-obsessed and to more casual players who
enjoy our full range of family-friendly programming and fellowship.
It's a job that keeps us smiling - whether we're watching one of
our talented pros teach a youngster to put spin on her serve, or
staring amazed at the celebrity players we proudly help bring to
Charlotte as the host of several prestigious tournaments.
Our landmark club is tucked into 55 wooded acres and features 32
outdoor and five indoor courts, a Junior Olympic-size pool and
state-of-the art fitness facilities. We are close enough to the
city's bustle to be convenient, but removed enough to give a sense
of sanctuary. Call us biased, but we think we have the formula just
about right.
Come join us and start your own traditions at Olde Providence!
Players are selected manually by the tournament director after the close of registration.
