About Triangle Tennis Club

Triangle Tennis Club (TTC) was founded in 2004 as the Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill area's first Gay and Lesbian tennis club. Our goal is to advocate the welfare of the community by promoting Tennis within the Gay and Lesbian community in the Triangle. We are also a pround member of The Gay and Lesbian Tennis Alliance (
GLTA).

TTC meets every Friday evening, weather permitting, from 7-9PM at the
Millbrook Exchange Tennis Center in North Raleigh. The members also participate in a variety of USTA and GLTA tournaments throughout the year. TTC is also host to the Crape Myrtle Tennis Classic, a GLTA-sanctioned tournament held in October of each year.

Beyond tennis, TTC participates in and helps sponsor many community events throughout the Triangle. Since its founding, our club has grown to more that 50 members, ranging in skill ratings from 2.5 to 4.5+. We continue to welcome new members of all ages and skill levels.
