Greater Tucson Tennis Clubs

The Greater Tucson Area is the heart of tennis in Southern Arizona — a year-round outdoor market anchored by one of the nation's top college programs and the largest public tennis facility in the Southwest. Spanning Tucson, Oro Valley, Marana, Catalina Foothills, Vail, Sahuarita and Green Valley, the metro pairs an ideal desert climate — slightly milder than Phoenix thanks to its higher elevation — with a deep tennis heritage. This guide maps the clubs, junior programs, public courts, college teams, leagues and tournaments across the metro, from the Reffkin Tennis Center and the University of Arizona to the Foothills, Oro Valley and the Santa Cruz Valley.
