laying tennis, having fun, meeting new people? Sign me up! As the Hampton Hall Head Tennis Professional, I set out to create a monthly social play date for 2.5/3.0 level ladies that gets back to the simple roots of tennis—fun! I have been in the tennis industry for the last 20 years in many different environments, and whether it is a club, a vacation resort, or public tennis facility, one thing is always consistent. Not everyone wants to play to win and be competitive. Many players love the simple camaraderie of hitting some tennis balls, meeting new people, and relaxing afterwards with a nice glass of wine.
Junior Tennis at Hampton Hall Club!
Whether your child is just beginning their tennis career, or an advanced player looking to continue improvement, Hampton Hall Club Junior Tennis offers your child a fun and friendly environment! The result…a year-round, easily accessible, well-supervised tennis development program for children of all ages and levels. Let us get your child “in the game!”

Each month we have a different host site and the home Tennis Professional runs a round robin, in which everyone gets a chance to play with or against everyone else from a different club. It’s a great way to meet like-minded tennis players in the Hampton Hall and Bluffton community and not worry about letting your teammates down, as score is not kept. Are you a member who played tennis as a child or in your younger years? Do you want to get back into the game but don’t know where to start? Then the Young and the Rest of Us tennis mixer may be just the spot for you! Please contact Hampton Hall Tennis Professional Paul Tollefson ptollefson@hamptonhallsc.com to learn how you can get involved.
