3 lighted padel arenas, 3 lighted mix ball arenas, and fitness center promotion on July 1st
Austin, Texas – The Polo Tennis and Fitness Club, a private club located in Austin, Texas, has announced plans to expand a state-of-the-art facility that will bring a pickle ball, paddle ball and a renovated fitness center to its southwest Austin location. Completion expected on July 1, 2022. It will become the first club in Austin to feature dedicated tennis, pickleball and swing facilities and programs.
Pickleball is the fastest growing sport in the United States, with over 4.8 million active players. It is played on a 20 x 44-foot court and is ideal for players of all experience levels. Padel, a popular racket sport in Spain, is another fast-growing sport that combines elements of tennis and squash on a glass-enclosed court. All Racquet Sports, the country’s leading expert in padel, is leading the construction and development of the three stadiums. Technological features include exclusive aluminum profiles, laser-cut mounting plates, LED lighting and AFP Turf Monofibre. Polo Tennis and Fitness will be the first club in Austin to have three outdoor relay courts. Finally, the Polo Tennis and Fitness Club’s indoor fitness center will double in size with new equipment, group fitness space, and more soon.
“This news is a game changer for our members and the Austin racquet sports community,” said Dan Carusa, racquet manager and club manager at Polo Tennis and Fitness Club. “I would like to thank our property and the entire team for helping to realize this vision. We thank and express our special appreciation to Anders Ericsson, founder and co-owner, for his perseverance in driving Polo Tennis and Fitness Club forward since its acquisition in 2009, culminating in this historic expansion.”
According to Eriksson, “We could not be more proud of offering world-class programs in Tennis, Pickleball, and Padel as well as the latest equipment in our two-story fitness center. This clearly makes us a leader in the private club market.”
To celebrate the opening of the new club amenities, the Polo Tennis & Fitness Club will be holding an open event on Saturday 30th July from 2-5pm and is open to the public. Guests can tour the facility, experience all the racket sports offerings, and learn about membership opportunities.
