Angelo State University says both sets of its tennis courts are open to the public, subject to classes and intramurals. Locate them on the campus map (angelo.edu).
Contact the Concho Valley Tennis Association (conchovalleytennis.net) or Bentwood’s racquet desk at 325-949-1534. Share your approximate NTRP level, singles or doubles preference, and available times.

Plan your play
Give the Concho Valley Tennis Association (conchovalleytennis.net) or a local club pro your NTRP level, contact information, preferred singles or doubles format, and availability. Search current teams through USTA Texas Leagues (usta.com) if you want regular matches. Bentwood says its pros help players find groups, and San Angelo Country Club runs organized and social play for members.
Contact the association and Bentwood’s racquet desk before arriving. Ask about a guest eligible clinic, social event, or introduction to someone at your level; confirm fees and whether a member must accompany you. If you already have a partner, consider Concho Valley Tennis Center or the publicly accessible ASU courts (angelo.edu). Offer two or three playing windows and name a backup court.
Start with Concho Valley Tennis Center, then keep ASU and city park courts as backups. School use, lessons, classes, and events can affect availability. The city’s park reservation page (sanangelo.gov) describes pavilion rentals but does not publish a tennis court booking fee or guarantee. Call Parks & Recreation at 325-657-4279 if you need to secure a time. Bentwood (bentwoodcc.com) asks members to reserve up to 72 hours ahead and requires guests to accompany an active member.
Tell the provider your age, level, goal, and available days. Adults can ask Bentwood (bentwoodcc.com), San Angelo Country Club (sanangelocountryclub.net), or College Hills (collegehillssrc.com) about nonmember participation. For children, the YMCA (ymcasanangelo.org) publishes monthly member and nonmember rates. Bentwood posts groups and registration on its junior tennis page (bentwoodcc.com).
At 2.0–2.5, ask for a beginner clinic or coached rally group. At 3.0–4.0, ask the association or a club pro for a level matched drill, doubles group, or USTA team. New league players can create an account and self rate through TennisLink (usta.com). Check the USTA level descriptions (usta.com) if you are unsure of your level, and tell prospective partners whether you want a scored match, cooperative rally, or practice set.

San Angelo roots
San Angelo is the birthplace of Nancy Richey (tennisfame.com), an International Tennis Hall of Fame inductee, two time major singles champion, and member of women’s tennis’s Original 9. She learned from her teaching pro father George in San Angelo. Her brother Cliff Richey (itftennis.com) also played professionally. Closer to today’s courts, Bentwood coaches Kevin Collins and Courtney Nagel (bentwoodcc.com) came through the local tennis community and returned to teach and organize play.
