Frick Park Clay Court Tennis Club

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

During our first season in 2007, 20% of club player members made contributions in addition to the annual dues. To join the club as a player and contribute to our revitalization efforts, please see our Sign Up page.

During our restoration work in 2007, volunteers and supporters also came right to the courts to donate specific tools and items needed to restore and maintain the clay courts. Please see our wish list below for suggestions, Thanks!

* Restoration and New Lines for courts 5 and 6: $850.
