Athol Plaza Tennis Courts Reopens to Players

Tennis courts near Lake Merritt were reopened in November 2021 for tennis players now that the people experiencing homelessness have been successfully moved into supportive housing and the courts renovated, city officials said.

Welcome

Oakland was selected as host city for the 2014 National Public Parks Tennis Championships (NPPTC)! The tournament was a huge success and the biggest USTA sanctioned tournament in Northern California history. Over 500 players particpated in singles, doubles and mixed doubles in juniors, seniors, NTRP and Open.

This was a HUGE honor, and  a superb opportunity to showcase Davie Tennis Stadium and the entire City of Oakland to a national tennis audience.

Davie Fest was  held at Davie Tennis Stadium  on Saturday, September 28, 2013 to raise much needed funds to upgrade Oakland's Tennis facilities and fund free tennis programs for underserved Oakland youth. We can still use your help, please donate to Davie Tennis to help support public tennis in Oakland.
