Great place to learn tennis and meet new people. BTTC has a welcoming atmosphere no matter what your level of experience is. I came in as a complete newbie and have been taking lessons here for about a year.

My experience of the Bellingham Training and Tennis Club has been nothing but very positive and rewarding. The Club has a fantastic and welcoming staff and it’s very easy to schedule group training classes or tennis courts online or by phone. The training classes and tennis lessons offered are fantastic. The instructors are the best – always helpful and encouraging. They know their stuff! The facility is immaculate as well. If you want a place where you can comfortably work out and/or play tennis this is the BEST place in Bellingham!

This has been the best outcome of a horrible year. I started tennis again after a long absence after being so impressed with how the club protects everyone from infection while simultaneously offering superb facilities, super staff, and lots of options for tennis and fitness. It is my happy place. A positive friendly spot in a difficult cultural moment. They genuinely want you to experience joy as you achieve fitness and tennis goals.
