Tennis
The tennis program at Gulf Park has grown exponentially since the courts were first built a little over 20 years ago. Along with Champions Club, owned by Tennis Professional Andy Frost, Gulf Park has developed one of the largest Junior Interclub programs in Knox County. A certified Tennessee Tennis Welcome Center, adults have searched for and found a home to play competitive tennis. Throughout the last four years, numerous Gulf Park teams have won local, state and sectional competitions. Tennis has developed into a prime goal within the vision of the association and as a result, a $30,000 renovation of the tennis courts and grounds was undertaken last spring. Gulf Park now has four newly resurfaced tennis courts, new nets and ball markers and the promise of more competitive tennis yet to come.
