About Us
The Flint Tennis Club has been a cornerstone of the local tennis community since 1922, offering social and competitive play, camaraderie, and the unique experience of Michigan’s last remaining natural clay courts.
In 2023 the club established the Flint Community Tennis Association (FCTA), a nonprofit organization committed to growing the game of tennis in Flint, Michigan. Through events, lessons, and community activities, the FCTA makes tennis accessible to everyone.
With over a century of history, the Flint Tennis Club and FCTA continue to unite generations through fitness, friendship, and the timeless joy of tennis.
