Curtis is very professional and helpful. He gave me a very generous discount and helped me find my perfect shoes. I’ll be forever grateful. The price is even lower than Amazon. Will definitely return for every tennis related purchases.

I had an excellent experience here and walked out knowing I needed to write a good review!
My 8 year old son needed a new racket to replace his very first. We stopped in on a Saturday and the owner showed me rackets for his age/size at two different price points. It was really great to get good, solid advice because I freely admit I don’t know how to buy a racket.
We had to run, but I came back to get the racket that week and again, the owner couldn’t have been nicer or more helpful. And the racket was only $10! Plus, he saw me eyeing the dampeners and threw one in for free.
Excellent experience- support your local businesses!!

Curtis is great. We went in to get 2 rackets restrung. Even though he was behind the counter, he instantly recognized the make/model of the rackets.

After assessing them, he advised against restringing 1 racket because there was a little crack in the frame.

It’s refreshing to meet someone honest and so knowledgeable. Pricing was $30-$40 depending on the type of string. Will be back for a new racket once mine breaks.

Curtis and his team are great! Great racquet selection, including the brand new Wilson RF line. Good shoe selection at decent prices. Lots of accessories, bags, etc. and the stringing service is reliable too!

A nice little shop located in the heart of Evanston that dedicates more than just time and effort to serving their community's racket sport needs. I'm not a tennis player, but I do value that they are welcoming of the pickleball scene (as much as it devastates some tennis players). The paddle rental program is much appreciated for beginners trying to figure out their playstyle, and their system of using rental credit as part of a future in-store purchase is extremely considerate. The prices match what you can find online, and the customer service is top-tier.

The people who work here are helpful and knowledgeable. They helped us get our kid started with tennis gear at an affordable rate. Highly recommended!

If you are an avid tennis player or just learning the game, this is the shop for you! Curtis and his staff are incredibly knowledgable on all things tennis. When I purchased shoes, Curtis was able to point out the specifics on each, helping me find the "just right" fit. When it comes to rackets, they have a generous demo program and really invest the time and patience needed to help find a new wonderful racket. Phenomenal place!
