The Berea College tennis courts will be closed during athletic practices/events.

The Wilson Evans Tennis Complex houses ten separate playing courts and is the home of both the Berea College men’s and women’s tennis teams.  The courts are also used frequently by the college’s physical education department and patrons of the Seabury Center.  The courts are available for recreational use to the general public at no fee and are a popular spot for the community’s local tennis enthusiasts.

In the summer of 2012, the courts were resurfaced with the Premier Court ® surface coating.  This new coating is designed to reduce injuries and provide consistency of player performance with a state-of-the art, all-weather, cushioned surface.

The combination of excellent athletic facilities and a wonderful campus setting allows Berea to attract elite student-athletes, those committed both to excellence on the courts and fields upon which they compete, and in the classrooms where they learn and study.  The fields and courts upon which our athletes practice, train and compete are amongst the finest in the region. Berea College annually hosts conference championships and serves as a tournament destination for numerous events.

Tennis Court Features Include:

• 10 courts located below Seabury Center
• The college is host to many tennis tournaments due to its extensive tennis facilities.
• Five lighted courts
