YCC $1 million dollar investment in tennis courts  scheduled for opening October 13

Plans are moving ahead for an October 13th opening of the tennis complex that the College built in Prescott.  In a column in the Prescott Daily Courier, tennis professional Chris Howard describes the complex as “a prototype for others built across the country.”

According to Mr. Howard,  the “facility will boast an annual schedule of tournaments, Grand Prix events, USTA League Play (practices), Mixers, Intra-Club Matches, guest speakers, exhibitions, etc.”   

He also writes that “The programming will include playing groups for all levels of play during the weekday a.m./weekend hours and during evenings in the warmer months (with the high profile new lighting system) that can be accessed on the yc.edu/tenniscourts website.”

The Community College does not have a tennis team.  It has two courses with a potential enrollment of 30 students.
