Portland Tennis & Education (formally St. Johns Racquet Center) offers a variety of classes, drills, mixers, & private lessons for tennis & pickleball players of all levels. As a public facility, we welcome everyone. Our court fees are a flat rate that include ball machine access & racquet rental at no extra cost! Racquet stringing service is also offered at affordable prices. Every dollar earned on our public courts is poured directly back into our nonprofit program that offers academic support, tennis & athletic enrichment, life skills, family resources & mental health support to K-12 students enrolled in our after school & summer programs. Every time you play tennis or pickleball, you 'play a point' for PT&E students & families
Since our founding in 1996, 100% of 12th grade PT&E program graduates have graduated from high school on-time and gone on to pursue the post-secondary path of their choosing!
