The Tennis Center is located at 1300 Jennie O’Bryan Avenue, off of 1060 N. Cashua Drive. The location of the facility is ideally situated for easy access and participation by all members of the Florence community. The complex currently hosts USTA league play, open/free play, personalized instruction sessions, and developmental clinics. In partnership with the Florence Tennis Association, the City also offers an after-school educational/tennis outreach program for city youth.

Since the opening of the Dr. Eddie Floyd Florence Tennis Center in July 2011, the City of Florence Recreation Department has been productive in promoting and marketing the new center through several programs and events. Weekly scheduled programs include a youth academy, 2-4 person Clinics, Adult Beginners Classes and individual lessons. All instructional opportunities may be purchased through the Pro Shop. The City of Florence has once again been awarded a USTA Women’s Pro-Circuit event scheduled for October 10th through the 16th of 2022. The event is a $25,000 event and will feature some of the up and coming talent in the professional tennis arena.
