OUR
HISTORY

Club Founder, Virginia Glass

In 1969, Virginia Glass, Payton Cook, and John Leggett founded Mountain View Tennis Club, then located at Ocean View Park with only two tennis courts. In 1975, the club relocated to the Martin Luther King Jr. Park, where seven courts were built with HUD funding. In 2006, Mountain View Sports & Racquet Club became a charitable organization. The Club is responsible for the care and maintenance of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Park tennis courts.

MVSRC is IRS certified 501 (c)(3) charitable organization. Today, MVSRA remains in the MLK park and has become the one of the most diverse tennis club in the city.
