Georgetown, TX (February 6, 2019) — Cliff Drysdale Tennis, the nation’s leading tennis management company, has been selected to manage tennis operations at Cimarron Hills Golf and Country Club, a private community located in Georgetown, Texas just outside of Austin.
A private club membership at Cimarron Hills gives members access to the magnificent 45,000-square-foot clubhouse and a full complement of award-winning community amenities. Several membership options exist for individuals and families to enjoy golf, swimming, fitness, tennis and a full-service spa. The tennis center includes five championship hard courts, all of which are lighted for night play.
“Cimarron Hills is a first-class country club community with a strong and loyal membership,” said Scott McCulloch, Vice President of Operations for Cliff Drysdale Management. “We couldn’t be more excited to enhance and grow the tennis program, providing the Ultimate Tennis Experience for players of all ages and abilities.”
Cliff Drysdale Tennis was founded in 2001 by International Tennis Hall of Famer Cliff Drysdale and partner Don Henderson. CDT is dedicated to growing the game of tennis and strives to develop, promote and teach new programs that bring more tennis to more people. In July 2018, Troon®, the leader in club management, development, and marketing acquired CDT. The acquisition brings together two influential sports management companies that have been excelling at locations around the world for more than two decades.
The tennis program at Cimarron Hills will be led by newly appointed Director of Tennis Cal Loveridge. Originally from the UK, Loveridge is a Level 3 Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) certified professional with a wealth of playing and coaching experience. He played collegiate tennis at Lees McRae and Newberry University before beginning his coaching career. He has served numerous key roles at CDT-managed facilities, including most recently as Director of Adult Tennis at John Newcombe Country Club in New Braunfels, Texas.
“We are very excited about our new relationship with Cliff Drysdale Management and look forward to welcoming Cal and his family to the Cimarron Hills Community,” said Robbie Kearney, General Manager of Cimarron Hills Golf and Country Club. “Our members possess a strong passion for tennis and we look forward to expanding our programming and continually growing the game.”
Tennis programming at Cimarron Hills will feature an expanded schedule for both adults and juniors.
