Tennis Venue Services restores Littleton Golf and Tennis' indoor facility

“USTA’s Tennis Venue Services has allowed LGT to remain a strong presence in the south metro Denver area,” adds South Suburban Tennis & Pickleball Manager Mia Settlemire. “Capitalizing on the excitement of the new building has allowed us to restructure our programming to increase the capacity for our junior red, orange and green ball progression classes.”

Since reopening, LGT has hosted more than 1,200 USTA league and tournament players. In addition, the six indoor courts are home to 1,500 weekly patrons participating in adult and junior classes, permanent court times, and in-house leagues.

“Adult programming has increased dramatically, with monthly classes ranging from beginner to upper 4.5 NTRP level, resulting in growth of more than 60 percent between November 2022 and January 2025,” Settlemire says. “The continued popularity of tennis at the new facility is a driving factor in our incredibly successful USTA Leagues that run April through September.”

“South Suburban has a long history of hosting the most USTA League teams in Colorado and some of the largest tournaments as well at their tennis facilities, including the Littleton location,” adds USTA Colorado Director of Community Services Kristy Harris. “LGT is an exceptional public venue.”

"Outstanding tennis facilities like Littleton Golf and Tennis help us to grow the game at the grassroots level, and we are proud to recognize them for their ongoing impact on the sport,” says the USTA’s Theodore Loehrke, managing director for section partnerships. “The great work of South Suburban Parks and Recreation continues to support our shared mission of growing tennis to inspire healthier people and communities everywhere."
