TriCity Fitness, Inc. is proud to support the United States Military-Connected Community with our Tennis for the Troops program and offer a complimentary Military Membership to our facility for all veterans, active duty and national guard.
“Learn the game of tennis and find a community of support for military families, veterans, active duty – anyone who might want to play with other people who speak “your language” - that’s a Win-Win!”
Billy Ciejka, General Manager at TriCity Fitness and Program Director of Tennis for the Troops
Tri City Fitness offers a great atmosphere. Everyone is so personable, the staff here, the people that give lessons – they’re amazing. The Tennis 4 the Troops program is such a great benefit for our troops. It provides both a mental challenge and a physical challenge just by coming here and getting involved. You’re going to meet great people, get a great workout and have a good time!"
