Public Tennis Courts in Forsyth County, Georgia

C.E. Brassel
Forsyth County, Georgia offers five public facilities that offer tennis courts. The facilities include Central Park, Sharon Springs Park, Sawnee Mountain Park, Coal Mountain Park, and Midway Park1. The parks are beautifully maintained and provide a wide variety of activities for tennis and non-tennis participants alike. The use of the tennis courts are on a first come-first serve basis; however, a court reservation can be made for a small fee.

Both Central and Sharon Springs Parks include eight hard courts, lights, a covered pavilion, restrooms, picnic tables, and tennis backboard2. The Sawnee Mountain Park has four hard courts in addition to a covered pavilion, restrooms, picnic tables, and a tennis backboard2. The Midway Park provides only two tennis courts with a backboard; while, the Coal Mountain Park provides two tennis courts and picnic tables2.

All of the courts are open to public use and are not intended for use by tennis teaching professionals or other unauthorized individuals or groups1. Lessons may be offered provided the instructor reserves the court and pays the accompanying fee. League matches such as ALTA or USTA may play out of the facilities as well but must reserve and pay fee to do so.

For more information, feel free to call the Forsyth County Parks and Recreation Department or stop by their website1.
