New Tennis Court Debut

Excitement builds as we look to the future of tennis in Palm Coast during the process of Phase 2 construction at the Southern Recreation Center. We invite all residents to join us on Monday, January 13 from 8-9am at the Southern Recreation Center for a ribbon-cutting ceremony unveiling the newly finished courts and other enhancements. On June 18, 2024, City Council approved a “Growth Grant” agreement with the USTA, funding $700,000 to cover the construction of additional tennis courts. The USTA’s mission is to promote and develop tennis for all. This year, the USTA recognized the City of Palm Coast as part of the 75th anniversary of the USTA Florida Tennis Trail. The Southern Recreation Center has added 4 clay courts, new efficient LED lighting that will make us eligible for nighttime tournaments, and its first show court. Our show court is an open-air tennis stadium that seats over 180 spectators. We continue progressing towards other facility amenities including shade structures, water stations, and additional parking.
