Tennis Center
The Jonesboro Country Club has one of the preeminent tennis programs in Arkansas. It is home to three state-of-the-art indoor tennis courts, as well as five new post-tension outdoor hard courts. All courts are well lit for night play. The Pro Shop offers a nice selection of racquets, shoes, and accessories as well as racket stringing.
JCC offers league play for members of all ages and skill levels, and is host to several USTA league teams that are competitive year in and year out. The JCC Tennis Association supports all areas of the tennis program at the Jonesboro Country Club, and hosts many events and socials throughout the year.
The Jonesboro Country Club is also home to one of the Arkansas’s deepest and strongest junior programs. With dozens of juniors playing tournaments all over the state and holding southern rankings, JCC can compete with any other junior program in Arkansas. Our kids start as young as 5 years old, and stay with us throughout their high school careers.
Jonesboro Country Club is very proud of its first rate teaching staff. Gary Jones is the Director of Tennis and has been with the Club since 2005. He has served on the Board of the USTA Arkansas, serving as its President in 2021 and 2022. Byron Cato has been a full time teaching pro at JCC since 2008. Both Gary and Byron are USPTA certified and are certified as umpires by the USTA. Tiaan Steenkamp is the newest addition to the teaching staff and is quickly establishing himself as a valuable member of the Tennis team of teaching professionals. All of our pros offer lessons and clinics for all ages and levels.
