This facility is a great boost to the program, allowing for indoor instruction and home matches during the inclement winter months when the tennis teams are unable to get outdoors.

"Having an indoor faciltiy is a necessity in collegiate tennis and we have an outstanding facility right in our backyard," commented Dale Short.

The indoor facility serves as an alternate location in case of bad weather during the outdoor season.

The Racquet Club has eleven courts: four hardcourts, three clay courts and four indoor courts.

The clay courts are helpful for individual Blue Raiders who compete in the National Clay Courts Championships each year, one of the three collegiate grand slam events.
