Season Ahead

Platform Tennis Enthusiasts,

This year will be the best ever for Platform Tennis in Glen Ellyn! For everybody who has been on the fence about trying this game out, this is the year. We now have 4 courts and a warming/viewing hut at Marynoll Park to accommodate everyone. This will be the new hot spot in Glen Ellyn to come out and meet your winter neighbors, learn this great game, and enjoy friendly competition outdoors!

To help kick off the season please come out for a free clinic and intro to Platform Tennis on September 17, 1-4pm, sponsored by area pros with the PPTA followed by an open house party. Details will be announced soon.

For upcoming events, tournaments, clinics, and news please check out the club website at:

For the 3rd straight year the Monday Night House League will be the place to learn this game, meet all your winter neighbors, and compete in a friendly atmosphere minutes from home. Read more in the GEPD fall brochure and sign up by phone or online!
