Adult Tennis & Pickleball
We are excited to announce our partnership with the University of Findlay in 2022 to bring more quality tennis programs to the Findlay Family YMCA. We believe that this partnership will provide our members with greater access to tennis programming and resources, as well as create a stronger connection to the local university. We are dedicated to providing an enjoyable and educational experience to our members, and we are confident that this partnership will greatly benefit our tennis programs.
The East Branch offers a tennis center with five indoor tennis and pickleball courts and full locker rooms.
Our tennis center offers court time/rental, youth tennis programs, adult tennis programs, pickleball, and private tennis lessons.
Members can reserve courts for up to 2 hours in person or online two days in advance. The fee for reserving a court is $20 per hour at peak times (5-9 pm Monday-Thursday) and $12 per hour during nonpeak times. Learn how to make a court reservation below.
Alternatively, members can walk on to open courts at any time. Keep in mind that if you are a walk-on, there is no guarantee that you will get a court. Walk-on time is limited to 90 minutes.
