Vanderbilt Country Club! EVERYONE can play. Players
must sign-up with the tennis office. Vandyball rackets and balls will be available
at no cost for demo and play.
Rules:
All play must be within the service box of a tennis court.
All serves must be underhand and go over the net, staying in the service box.
The ball must bounce after crossing the net before it can be returned.
Standard tennis rules apply: i.e. two serve attempts, ball may not touch

ACEing Autism
Since 2017, Vanderbilt Country Club has partnered with ACEing Autism, a national program whose mission is to connect children with autism through unique tennis programs, and to develop and advance proven methods to positively impact the children, families and communities we serve. Vanderbilt Country Club has offered several five week sessions since 2017, and will be offering it again in winter 2018. The program relies on volunteers from within the community to assist the students on the tennis court. Each week approximately 20 volunteers are needed; please contact the Tennis Office if you are interested in volunteering. The next session will begin in mid-January, 2019, and the second of the season will begin in late February, 2019.
