The facility is fantastic and I'm really happy to have an indoor tennis facility so close to home. I've been a member for several weeks and wanted to give my honest review.
There are almost always courts available, which is nice. Also, the staff has always been courteous and helpful. HOWEVER, they have a couple policies that are having a negative impact on my experience.
When I went in last week, the worker at the desk (who is always very friendly and polite) told me that I can't use a hopper, and I can only have six tennis balls on a court.
They SAID this is for "safety reasons" so people don't trip on balls, but they are fine with their pros teaching private lessons having HUNDREDS of balls on the court. They are also fine having lots of balls on the court if you pay extra to rent their ball machines. So "safety reasons" is CLEARLY NOT a valid reason for this policy. Obviously, it's no safer to have hundreds of balls on the court just because you paid for a ball machine or paid to have a private lesson.
This policy makes it very difficult to get in my practice. How are you supposed to practice your serve with only six balls? Hit six shots, walk to the other side of the court and pick them all up, then hit six more? I only get in a small percentage of the number of repetitions because of this policy.
Also, they do not allow ball hoppers at all. IF this actually were about safety, then a simple an inexpensive solution would be to provide their approved "shopping cart" type hoppers for members to dump their bucket of balls into while they play. Or, just make a rule that the hoppers need to stay on the side by the benches as you play, so it isn't tripped on.
Their hours are pretty good. I like that they are open late. I would love to see them eventually open earlier so I can play before work, but I know it's a growing facility and they'll probably be able to do that down the line.
I really do love ETC and I LOVE being able to play. I just really wish they would change the six balls policy. I don't feel like I can get in the practice that I'd like to anymore.
I would HAPPILY give this place 5 stars if I could just simply bring a bucket of balls and practice tennis like almost ANY tennis player would.
The courts are pristine, it's close to home, the staff is courteous, they have courts available every time I want to play, and they've done a good job implementing their temporary buildings to make a full-featured facility as they grow. I LOVE ETC and just hope they will please reconsider...

Read moreMy son took group lessons 2 days a week for a month, he was in the 12+ age group sessions. I stayed and observed the classes and was completely disgusted with the "coaches". There were 4 of them and apparently they had a lot to discuss, just not with the kids. They all stood at the back of the courts and talked amongst themselves. If I were to say they instructed for 10 minutes out of the hour and a half lesson I would be exaggerating on the amount of instruction the kids received. I rarely review anything but I am so disappointed in this experience I had to put this out there. Hopefully ETC will take a hint and not waste other...
