Rock Creek Tennis Center in Rock Creek Park

Rock Creek Tennis Center (officially the William H.G. FitzGerald Tennis Center) sits inside Rock Creek Park on 16th Street NW, the long-time home of the Citi Open ATP/WTA tournament. The facility holds 25 tennis courts - 5 indoor, 10 clay outdoor, and 10 lighted hard courts - making it one of the largest public tennis centers in the country.

Junior Tennis Programs

Programs serve kids ages 5 through 17:
- 10 & Under Tennis - USTA progression with red, orange, and green ball levels
- Junior group classes by ability and age
- Private and semi-private lessons
- Camps during school breaks and summer
- Junior tournaments hosted on site through the year

What's Included

• Court time on 25 courts (5 indoor, 10 clay outdoor, 10 lighted)
• Coaching from Rock Creek Tennis Center pro staff
• Age-appropriate balls and racquets through colored-ball progression
• Year-round access with indoor courts active through DC winters

Experience

The facility hosts top-level pro tennis once a year - kids practice on the same courts where Citi Open finals are played. The mix of clay outdoor and indoor surfaces gives variety unusual for DC-area juniors. Public-facility pricing keeps the program accessible while quality stays at academy level.
