As 2018 winds down, I want to take a moment to appreciate the gifts this past year has given us as well as the promise that the coming year holds. With Champions Club set to open its doors in early 2019, the City of Southlake will soon have one more beautiful place where you and your family can make lifelong memories. We have always been a community of innovation, and 2019 is sure to be another big year for us. I can’t wait to share it with you! The holiday season has a way of reminding me to slow down and cherish the people that matter most. I wish the same for you and your loved ones. Mayor Laura K. Hill

COMING SOON... With construction underway on two new enclosed courts, there will soon be even more to love about the Southlake Tennis Center! Since the Tennis Center’s beautiful new clubhouse was unveiled in May 2018, visitors have enjoyed state-of-the-art amenities, a full-service pro shop and a multipurpose Club Room that’s the perfect rental space for meetings and special events. With the addition of two enclosed courts, visitors of all ages will be able to enjoy the award-winning facility no matter the weather. This final round of renovations will transform courts eight and nine into fully temperaturecontrolled indoor courts. Construction begins this week and is expected to conclude in summer 2019. During construction, the external gate to courts 17, 18 and 19 will not be accessible for visitors wishing to use the facility after hours. We apologize for the inconvenience and encourage players to utilize the two courts by the water tower during the transition, both of which are open to the public. The gate will be re-opened once construction is complete. For more information, please contact the Southlake Tennis Center at (817) 421-5605.
