Every week local adults meet at the Pell City Tennis Center to share their love of tennis.

“I have been playing tennis for over 35 years,” founder Bill Owings said. “I’d really like to get more people involved who would like to play, no matter their skill.”

The “Morning Tennis” Club currently meets every Thursday at 9:45 a.m. at the Pell City Tennis Center located by Lakeside Park. They are hoping to offer the program two days a week on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. The program is for adults of all ages and skill levels.

The cost for participation is a guest fee of $3.00 per person per day or a Tennis Membership. Contact the Pell City Tennis Center at 205-338-6922 for pricing and more information.
