Grass Tennis
Experience Wimbledon inspired grass courts at Falmouth Country Club: Grass Tennis Courts That Set Us Apart
When it comes to tennis, few things are as iconic as the lush, manicured grass courts of Wimbledon. The elegance, speed, and tradition associated with grass courts are unparalleled, offering a unique playing experience that’s both challenging and rewarding. At our country club, we bring that same Wimbledon-style magic to our members, offering meticulously maintained grass courts that elevate every match to championship standards.
Why Grass Courts Are Special
Grass courts are a rarity in the modern tennis world. Of all the surfaces—hard, clay, and grass—grass courts are the least common due to the high level of maintenance required to keep them in top condition. However, for players who’ve had the privilege of playing on grass, the experience is unforgettable.
Grass courts are the fastest surface in tennis, with the ball skimming low and quick across the turf. This speed rewards players who excel at net play, quick reflexes, and strategic shot placement. Additionally, the softer surface makes grass courts easier on the body, reducing the impact on joints compared to hard courts.
Key Features of Our Grass Courts:
- Immaculate Maintenance: Our groundskeeping team meticulously tends to the grass courts, ensuring they are always in peak condition. From perfectly trimmed turf to expertly leveled surfaces, every detail is managed with care.
- Authentic Playing Conditions: The bounce, speed, and feel of the ball on our grass courts are designed to mimic those of Wimbledon. This authenticity creates a playing experience that’s as close to the real thing as possible.
- Aesthetic Beauty: There’s nothing quite like the sight of emerald green grass courts set against the backdrop of our picturesque country club. These courts don’t just play well—they look stunning, adding to the overall ambiance of the club.
Health Benefits of Grass Tennis
Beyond the prestige, grass courts offer several health advantages. The softer surface reduces strain on joints, making it ideal for players of all ages, especially those prone to knee or back pain. The quick pace of grass tennis also enhances agility and reflexes, providing a dynamic workout that’s as fun as it is effective.
Perfect for Players of All Levels
Whether you’re a seasoned player or just picking up a racket, our grass courts cater to all skill levels. Beginners appreciate the forgiving surface, while advanced players enjoy the challenge of adapting to the fast pace and low bounce of the ball. It’s a surface that pushes every player to sharpen their game.

Playing on grass courts isn’t just about the sport—it’s about embracing tradition. At Falmouth Country Club, these courts represent more than just a place to play; they symbolize the timeless elegance and prestige of tennis.
