Cullman-Heyman Tennis Center

The Cullman-Heyman Tennis Center serves as the premier indoor and outdoor tennis hub for Yale University and the greater New Haven athletic community. Situated along Derby Avenue near the Yale Bowl, this collegiate venue features eight indoor hard courts beneath high ceilings with crisp, tournament-grade illumination. Outside, players have access to outdoor hard courts during the warmer months. The center maintains an energetic sporting environment, regularly hosting NCAA Division I Ivy League competitions, regional junior events, and adult instructional clinics. Court surfaces are kept in competition-ready condition to guarantee authentic ball bounce and reliable traction in every season. The culture balances competitive college tennis with community accessibility, welcoming recreational competitors, adult leagues, and developing juniors. Court reservations, contract time, and membership options are managed via the Yale Athletics booking portal, giving local tennis players consistent access to professional-grade court time.
