The
UC Riverside Highlanders men’s and women’s tennis teams
compete at the UCR Student Recreation Center Tennis Courts. The
tennis facility is located adjacent to the main Student Recreation
Center Building at the corner of Aberdeen Drive and Linden Avenue.
The facility
houses 10 tennis courts, including a sunken center court that seats
approximately 500 spectators. Bleachers located adjacent to the
other courts can hold as many as 750 spectators. The third set of
courts feature a berm with a green belt for fans to sit and watch
matches.
Highlander pride
is evident with the Highlander blue courts and blue windscreens,
and the courts are adorned with the names of former UCR tennis greats,
another example of UCR’s rich tennis tradition.
The
tennis facility is a part of the larger UC Riverside Student Recreation
Center, which has two sand volleyball courts, two basketball courts,
and a full sized roller hockey rink. The rink features basketball
backboards that allow it to be used as two full-length basketball
courts. Finally, an eight-foot wide jogging trail surrounds the
entire three-quarter of an acre complex. All the facilities are
lighted for evening use.
