Summer Outdoor tennis - DOUBLES 2025
Summer Tennis - Starts May 16 - FREE!
Summer tennis is open to Columbus Ski Club members and non-members alike. We always hope to generate interest in the Fall, Winter, and Spring tennis league through our summer tennis program. There is no sign-up and no fee for summer tennis. Just show up if you want! We begin at 6 PM on Friday nights (starting 5/16) at Hilliard Davidson High School, 5100 Davidson Road, Hilliard, OH 43026 and generally play about 2 hours. Can't get there at 6 PM? Come as soon as you can, however, the more people we have at 6 PM allows us to hold courts. All levels 2.5 and above are welcome. If the Hilliard Davidson High School courts are too busy and no Columbus Ski Club members are there, we have moved about 5 minutes away to Hilliard Darby High School Courts.
Summer tennis stops when Fall Indoor Tennis begins mid-September.
Be prepared to join us afterwards for drinks and/or dinner!

“Tennis is the only sport with the word LOVE. Let's Love tennis!”
(Quote from the Consul of the Hague Tennis and Squash Group in the Netherlands)
More Details:
Fill courts as people arrive and start play when ready. Generally, the first court to fill will be the top court. The next to fill will be the second court and so on.
Players are rotated after a team wins seven games by one. First court to do so announces 'SEVEN.' All courts rotate at that time with winners up, losers down. Partners switch. Play is NO-AD. In case of a tie score, play one more deciding point.
Bring a can of NEW tennis balls to share once every 4 weeks
At skill level of 2.5 the participant should:
- Understand basic tennis scoring
- Be comfortable with and understand some doubles strategy
- Be able to keep the ball in play during warm-up and in moderate social play
We have a nice range of ability levels from 2.5 to 4.0. •
