Crosstown Recap

In April, we hosted the 20th anniversary of the Crosstown Challenge vs Myers Park Country Club, where a team of 18 players competes in tennis doubles and golf better ball matches. After a couple tough years, a tie, and a Covid year, Charlotte Country Club brought home the trophy! It was a great night of tennis with a lot of support from our tennis community, and the team backed it up on the golf course the following day.

Congrats to our winning team:

Andy Misiaveg, Arthur Whedon, Brooks Lucas, Caldwell Calame, Charles Anderson, Dean Smith, Ike Belk, Jensie Teague, John England, John Grenier, Justin Hannon, Kern Carlton, Oscar Cranz, Rush Shull, Walker Poole, Will Warlick, Christiaan Lee-Daigle, Jarrod Liston

Pickleball Court Construction

The construction of four new pickleball courts to replace our clay QuickStart courts is underway! We expect those to be ready very soon and will double our number of permanent pickleball courts from four to eight.

This will be a huge addition for a number of reasons. First, it will allow for more of the very popular pickleball "outings" without disrupting regular member call-in play. Similarly, it will also allow for additional programming that can accommodate multiple levels at the same time. Lastly, we expect these courts to dry out faster after rain since they will be further away from the tree coverage and get more sunlight.

This will be very welcome news to our morning pickleball players! We can't wait!
