About CTA

Charlotte Tennis Academy changed ownership in the winter of 2022 and continues to grow a first-class instructional program for players of all ages and ability levels. With over 20 years experience in the business, we provide year-round coaching where players can develop from a beginner to the elite level player.

Tennis is a lifetime sport that provides an opportunity for players to stay fit, enhance self-esteem, and build character through the many life lessons that involvement in tennis can provide. CTA takes pride in providing organized, well-run programs with experienced coaches using the latest teaching techniques with an awareness that tennis is part of a bigger picture in our students’ lives.

It's not a matter of who you're playing; it's a matter of just playing

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT

OUR PRIORITY

We specialize in providing quality tennis clinics and lessons; it’s all we do and it’s what we’ve been doing successfully since the fall of 1989.

OUR PASSION

We love teaching tennis and (we’ve been told) that shows in the energy, enthusiasm and effort we bring every day. Our goal is to pass that along to all of our students.

OUR PERSPECTIVE

We believe tennis is the conduit through which people (particularly kids) develop character, learn life skills and build relationships that impact them well beyond the tennis court.

OUR PROFESSIONALISM

We strive to make every clinic and lesson a great experience for our students. We focus on doing the details, behind the scenes, so we can provide an environment for success.

You are never as good as your best day but never as bad as your worst
