Oak Brook Bath & Tennis Club

Vibrant fall colors and cooler temperatures provide the perfect setting for tennis players on the Har-Tru clay courts at Oak Brook Bath & Tennis. Ideally situated among the trees, these environmentally friendly courts are known to reduce the risk of injury.

Our new director of tennis and pickleball, Ryan Rader, joined us this summer with a wide range of instructional expertise in tennis, platform tennis and pickleball.

A former D1 standout tennis player at Northern Illinois University, Rader’s post collegiate work as a director of tennis has focused on providing instruction to hundreds of players of all ages and abilities throughout the Chicagoland area. If you need one on one help, schedule your private lesson today by emailing RRader@oak-brook.org.

Rader embraces the strong tradition of our club and is looking forward with excitement to the full slate of fall programming he has planned for players of all ages. For adults, league play will continue and a new series of drills will be available for men, women and co-ed play. There will also be a mixed doubles round robin social along with morning and evening opportunities to practice and play.

Kids will have the opportunity to come out after school and on weekends to get their time in on the court. Friday afternoons will feature match play and pizza night. Saturdays will provide the opportunity for kids to join in classes based on their age: 8 and under, 9-11 years old and 12 and over. u
