The United States Tennis Association (USTA) announced that the Randy Stephens Tennis Center is one of 33 winners in the USTA’s annual Outstanding Facility Awards program, which recognizes excellence in the construction and/or renovation of tennis facilities throughout the country. 

“It’s a huge honor to be recognized on the national level with such a significant award from the USTA,” said Robin Bateman, Facilities Coordinator II for the Randy Stephens Tennis Center. “We have a great team here at RSTC, from our Macon-Bibb recreation staff to tennis coaches to volunteers to strong leadership personnel. We all work together with community partners like Macon Area Tennis Association, to provide strong tennis programing. It’s always wonderful to be recognized for a job well done. “ 

The Center, located at the South Bibb Recreation Complex (7035 Houston Avenue), has 22 full-sized tennis courts (all of which are wheelchair accessible) and features a Musco LED Lighting System. Your Serve Tennis Pro Shop stocks the Center with a large selection of tennis apparel and accessories.  

“Great tennis facilities like the Randy Stephens Tennis Center help us to grow the game at the grassroots level, and we are proud to recognize them for their ongoing impact on the sport of tennis,” said Craig Morris, Chief Executive, Community Tennis, USTA. “Randy Stephens Tennis Center has embraced many of our tennis initiatives and kept the sport at the forefront of its community each year.” 

Facilities were judged on the following criteria: overall layout and adaptation to site; excellence of court surface and lights; ease of maintenance; accommodations for players, spectators and press/officials; aesthetics; graphics (including the use of signs and landscaping); amenities such as casual seating for spectators, food services and social areas; and the facilities’ participation in USTA programs. 

We are so proud of our team over at Randy Stephen’s Tennis Center for their work and dedication to making the courts some of the best in the country!
