Giammalva Padel Club

My 5-year-old daughter started at the club about a month ago, and from the moment her trial class ended, she said she loved it. Since then, she’s been happier after every session. Her coach, Maria, does a fantastic job connecting with her and the other girls in the group. The small class size—just three girls—has been perfect for our daughter, for both learning and having fun. The facilities are spacious, clean, and very well maintained. We’ve also been impressed by the friendly atmosphere. Everyone we’ve interacted with has been incredibly polite and responsive—from Moses at the front desk to Coach Helga, Coach Maria, and the rest of the coaching team. We feel so lucky to have found this gem of a tennis club just minutes from home—truly a place that specializes in nurturing young players with care and professionalism.

Giammalva Racquet Club stands out as an exceptional facility due to its comprehensive range of amenities, including meticulously maintained tennis courts, an inviting atmosphere, and an emphasis on player development at all levels. The club’s commitment to fostering a community of athletes, from beginners to advanced players, is reflected in its robust coaching programs, tournaments, and a well-structured calendar of events. Moreover, its skilled and professional staff provide personalized attention, ensuring that each player has the resources to reach their full potential. The club’s welcoming culture, combined with state-of-the-art facilities, makes it an ideal place for anyone looking to not only improve their game but also enjoy a social and dynamic sports environment.

We love it here! Tennis has been fantastic for my son—he’s progressed quickly, thanks to the excellent coaching, facilities, and training hours. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to get their child into tennis or for more advanced players, as they cater to all levels.

This club has really gone downhill fast since Sammy Giammalva sold it a few years ago. Staff is obnoxious and the tournaments are poorly run. Many courts are rundown and offer no shade or seating for spectators if you don’t get on the few upper courts. One court has no scoreboard and the far back court is uneven. They allow parents of the kids who coach at Giammalva to cheer inappropriately during matches and make excessively loud noises during matches and definitely are biased to their own during tournaments. If you think you are joining Sammy Giammalva’s club don’t be mistaken. He has no part in this club or the coaching and sold the club but they kept his name to attract players. The staff is very arrogant and rude most of the time. I hate every time my son plays in a tournament at this place. Just a bad vibe all around. We had a membership a few years ago so my son could coach but quickly found good coaches never stay long and they have their favorites and ignore the rest. They often coach in Spanish so if your child does not speak Spanish they feel very left out. Always issues with billing each month you have to call and question. They need to invest some money in setting up shaded areas and more seating because it is so hot most tournaments and you are sitting in the grass with ants attacking you. No way this is an “elite” tennis academy just a money making machine not putting funds back into the club to improve conditions for players or spectators with mid coaches. We only go now for tournaments maybe twice a year and I count the days until my child graduates high school and I don’t have to return this this facility.
