Club Background


   

Ground breaking for the site was started in July of 1966. Construction was expected to be completed within four weeks by the Collishaw Sprinkler Co of Santa Clara at a cost of slightly more than $32,000.

The Dedication for the Club was April 9, 1967 with exhibition games of Singles, Doubles, Triples and Rinks Games at the Willow Street Park as it was known then. Frank Bramhall was the Superintendent of Parks and Recreation for San Jose, Ca.

At the time there was an initial fee of $10.00 with annual dues of $7.50 per member or $10.00 per couple.
