The Love Of The Game

Do you remember the first time you fell in love? Your heart was pounding in your chest, and you were overwhelmed with an emotion that was indescribable. Well, come out and fall in love with tennis all over again. (Or maybe you will find your true love is Pickleball). Either way, you will get that immediate sensation, and at the same time, your health will benefit immensely. There have been numerous recent studies that have shown that Pickleball & Tennis are more than just fun! They get you moving and it is excellent socialization, two things that lead to happier and longer lives. So, if you or someone you know is interested in having fun, living healthier and longer, get in the game by contacting Travis Raque (Director of Racquets at The Club at Gateway) at (239) 561-1422 or email [email protected].

Women’s 3.0 Tennis Team Looking For New Players

The Club at Gateway is looking for new or former players to play on our women’s 3.0 team. You do not have to be a member to participate. However, there are a limited number of openings, so if you are interested, act quickly. We practice once per week and play matches once per week in the mornings at Gateway and surrounding clubs. It is a ton of fun and I would like to personally invite you or anyone you know interested in playing on our Ladies’ team. Play begins in October, and you will meet great people and have the time of your life.

If you or someone you know is interested, please contact Travis Raque (Director of Racquets at Gateway) at (239) 561-1422 or email [email protected].
