Our History

A rich tradition of service to the sport of tennis and to the tennis community began with David L. Freed. Mr. Freed founded the Salt Lake Swimming & Tennis Club in 1963 with the idea of being able to “play tennis twelve months a year,” making the Club the first indoor tennis facility west of the Mississippi River.

The Club was the first recipient of the United States Tennis Association’s national Organization of the Year Award in 1981. The award is based on service to the tennis community, service to its members through junior and adult programs, and historical perspective.
