Facility Hours

Pickleball is one of the fasted growing sports in the nation and River Run hosts a beautiful facility with lighted indoor and outdoor regulation pickleball courts. George Husk, the Racquet and Sports Center Director, is a certified Professional Pickleball Registry Pro (PPR) and is available to answer any questions or schedule a Pickleball assessment.

In March 2020, River Run Country Club hosted our first Pickleball Tournament with 115 players, including Corrine Carr, one of the best players in the world. We currently offer open play pickleball throughout the week.

River Run has some of the best indoor lighting in the region. Our LED/PANEL lighting system provides exceptional lighting with no glare or shadow effect. We are the only indoor facility to have LED indoor lighting in the area, providing our players the ultimate quality of light for playing tennis. As the weather cools down, we offer three great ways for members to play tennis indoors:

• Indoor Tennis Leagues
• Weekly Permanent Court Time for Group Tennis
• Single Reservations
• USTA/WIC Teams
• Seasonal Rates Do Apply

River Run’s Tennis Academy has a long history of developing outstanding tennis players. With our new staff, we have set our sights on becoming one of the best academies in the country. We build players from the ground up in an athlete-centered environment with a long-term development pathway.

Our proven development comes from the experience of our staff having worked with multiple USTA #1 ranked juniors as well as current and former pro tour players. Our system runs much like a school curriculum and runs all classes on a semester basis. The goal is to progress each student to the next level after several semesters based on their progress.

In some circumstances, we will allow a player to join a class mid-semester, though typically we encourage players to start at the beginning of a new semester.

We use the International Tennis Federations ball progression development system where kids use correct sized racquets, court dimensions and balls that suit their current age and skill level: (Red/Orange/Green/Yellow)

Our Academy staff holds the highest level of education in the tennis coaching industry, and their alumni have received scholarships at over 40 of the best Division 1 programs in the nation.
