Carved out of the 53-acre North Bossier Park, Bossier Tennis Center resounds with the thumps, thwacks, and grunts of tennis games echoing across its 12 clay and 6 hard tennis courts. Overhead lighting illuminates each playing surface, encouraging matches, tournaments, junior camps, and individual lessons to continue well into the evening hours—and negating the need for an onlooker to follow the ball with a flashlight. Resident USPTA pro Elana Engleman not only presides over this flurry of activity but also keeps the pro shop stocked with essentials such as new tennis balls, apparel, and rackets.
