What to know in the United States
- Bubble season: most bubbles go up in the fall and come down in the spring. Each listing shows the dates the facility publishes.
- Junior tennis runs through the USTA and its sections. Each metro row above shows the section for most of that area. Junior divisions are 10U to 18U.
- Some clubs, mostly in the New York City, Boston and Philadelphia areas, sell contract time: the same court and hour each week for the whole indoor season. The listings say so when the club publishes it.
- Prices are in US dollars, as published. Tax may be extra.
Types of indoor tennis facility
The type of facility decides who can play, how you book, and what it costs. Each listing shows its type.
- Private club. Members only, or members first. Usually an initiation fee plus annual or seasonal dues. Often the deepest junior programs.
- Public / municipal. Run by the city. Court time is open to residents, often at the lowest prices, but prime hours fill fast.
- Bubble on public courts. An air-supported dome over outdoor courts for the winter season. Often run by a club or operator under a city permit.
- Community center. Courts inside a recreation center. Booking is usually through the city’s recreation system.
- University. Campus courts. Some open court time or programs to the public; access rules differ by school.
- Academy. A coaching business with its own courts. Court time is mostly for its own programs.
- School. A school’s courts or gym used for lessons or programs outside school hours.
- Pay-per-court center. A pay-per-court center. Anyone can book by the hour, no membership needed.
Membership or pay per court?
A membership makes sense when your player trains indoors two or more times a week all winter, or when you want the club’s junior program. Pay-per-court is better for occasional practice, for a hitting partner, or to try a facility before you commit. Some clubs let non-members join junior programs without a full membership. The listings say so when the club publishes it.
What to ask before you sign up
- Can juniors book courts on their own, and at what hours? Many clubs limit junior court time in prime hours.
- Is there a waitlist for membership or for the junior program, and when does registration open?
- Which surface are the courts? Practice on the surface of the tournaments you play.
- What does a guest pay to hit with a member, and is there a limit on guest visits?
- For a bubble: which dates does the season run, and what happens to bookings when the bubble comes down?
- Are lessons with your own coach allowed, or only with the club’s pros?
