nine-hole women’s golf

Spring Golf Retreat Spring kicked off with an exciting 9-hole women’s golf trip to Nashville! The festivities started on Sunday evening with a relaxing dinner at The Factory, where everyone had a chance to unwind and connect. Monday featured a 9-hole round at the Belle Meade Country Club, followed by a delightful group dinner in the picturesque town of Franklin. After finishing up on the course, the group explored some of Nashville’s top attractions, capping off the trip with an unforgettable dinner on Broadway. Tee to Green Winners The Tee to Green winners showcased exceptional skill and precision across various challenges. Kimberly Kephart delivered an outstanding shot closest to the pin on hole #11, landing just 18'6" from the flag, unaffected even by the slightest breeze. Debby Carrig demonstrated remarkable control with the straightest drive on hole #18, maintaining perfect accuracy despite swirling winds-truly precision under pressure. In the Low Net Winners by Flight, Kimberly Kephart topped Flight 1 with a score of 15 (-21), followed by Susan Moon at 17 (-19). Flight 2 was led by Tina Ballon with 13 (-23), with Teresa Caro close behind at 15 (-21).

racquets Fall tennis is around the corner! We are excited to offer a full menu of the sports you love. Pickleball continues to thrive with our popular in-house league and ALTA/ Joinpickleball options. Even though we are currently in the summer season, planning for Fall ALTA has already begun. Be sure to consider what your Fall tennis and pickleball season will look like for your family at AAC. All detailed offerings of our programs are available online through our app and the bi-weekly Court Connect email on Tuesdays.

Come out to watch the very best players in the Atlanta area (including our AAC pro, Brad Sceney) compete for prize money and glory! Admission is free, open to guests, and very family-friendly!

LTA Member Guest We look forward to this event every year, and 2025 is no exception! Sign-ups sold out in just minutes, proving once again that this is one of our most anticipated events of the year. A huge thank you to our LTA Events Committee—Shannon Collins, Lori Morlan, Katherine Malone, and Lisa Mannion—for their incredible efforts in making this event a success. It wouldn’t shine without such a dedicated team behind it. We also extend our sincere appreciation to our racquet sports team for their hard work and commitment in bringing this event to life. We’re already looking forward to the 2026 LTA Member Guest!" 2025 There are several advantages to coming into the net on an approach shot: Aggressive Strategy DICTATE THE PACE: By moving forward, you can take control of the point and dictate the pace of play, putting pressure on your opponent. FORCE ERRORS: An aggressive approach can force your opponent into making errors, as they have less time to react and are often rushed into making a shot. Tennis Tip from Coach Wendy: "The Approach Shot Invitation"

In case of an audit by the state, we could lose our permit to operate if we are not following these rules. This does not apply to “Events,” such as TGIF which is why we are trying to offer more events in lieu of drop-in care, so you are able to utilize the Timbers even more!
