There was also a time when I accidentally signed up my kid for the wrong month. Customer service was kind enough to move him to the next months sessions without any questions or hassles. Thank you Euro Tennis!!! Cheers!

Note the Yelp hours are incorrect and they're closed on Mondays!…read more I showed up on a Monday and the shop was closed but Rick happened to stop by to pick something up. He mentioned they'll be open the following day, but ended up taking my order anyway after asking what I was looking for (on his day off!). I went home and stressed out for 2 days because I was certain I ordered the wrong racket (I tried to do the transaction quickly and didn't even look at the racket since Rick wasn't even supposed to be working so I wanted to get out quickly). No matter how I crunched the numbers, I was certain it could not be the correct racket since my total after strings and tax was $20 below MSRP of the racket alone. I show up to pick up my racket and it was the right one! I was so confused I had to ask Rick about it and he said he never uplifted his prices after Babolat and other retailers increased their prices after tariffs. I came to support a local shop since it's rare for high end and in demand rackets to be sold at a discount. I never would've thought a small shop could've beat these prices. He didn't even tell me he was giving a discount or anything... people unfamiliar with rackets probably don't even understand the crazy deal they're getting. It's so nice to know that even though Rick can charge MSRP (and it would be a wise business decision to do so), he doesn't. I'm still reeling and cannot thank Rick enough. He's honestly such a great guy (I spoke politics with him too) and I hope everyone supports his shop. This experience is honestly exactly why more people should shop local.

MH is okay overall. The tennis courts are nice and there are plenty to reserve from. The pool area…read moreis dark and looks like lights are not all functional. However, the gym needs some improvement. It is full of redundant upper body equipment but has barely anything for the lower body/legs. The closest is a large glute builder machine that is awkward to set up and use. You could use cables to do some leg exercises, but those are often tricky and require people to stand. What if the user is older and balance is an issue? Also, not everyone is skilled to use the barbells at the racks safely. There are no standard lower body machines such as the Leg Press, Leg Extension, Hamstring Curl, and Abductor and Adductor machines. By not having these, the club currently does not have inclusivity for people of all ages / abilities to work the lower body. Mission Hills used to have these machines, but since they brought in the excess of new upper body machines at the beginning of the year, the foundational leg machines are strangely gone. It's a basic expectation for a gym to include some lower body specific machines. The staff keeps saying that they have the lower body machines but that there is no room for them. Something about needing a permit from the city to put these machines in a different part of the gym. It's been 9 months now and still no updates. If they do have them already, maybe they could shift things around and at least get a leg press in there. I wish that management would have done something about this by now.

Rather than just settle with the bad patterns I bring on the court, he is relentless and patient in changing my habits and making me a stronger player. He is super encouraging too.

I joined to improve quickly and enter my highschool's (Bellarmine College Preparatory) varsity tennis team. Both of my brothers had already entered the team after practicing daily at Norcal. I finally had entered the team with my brothers thanks to Norcal. Bellarmine's tennis team is known for its talented players who consistently win WCAL and the competition to enter the varsity team is extremely difficult. The team consists of many utr 10s, 9s, and 8s. I continue to play at Norcal as both of my brothers are in college. Thank you Norcal!

Are we in the Philippines? It sure felt like it playing tennis here. For being public courts, these…read moresix lighted courts are well maintained. There is also a hitting wall, so you can practice while waiting for your partner. We noticed and heard mostly a Tagalog-English speaking crowd of men playing social singles and doubles. In fact, except for us - visiting out of towners - seems like everyone there knew each other. If you live in the area and need to play, I'm sure they'd be more than willing let you join in if you're an average player. I doubt they'd be too excited playing with a novice or advanced player. When I say social tennis, winning isn't the top prioirty. It's having a good time while playing with friends. There will be plenty of commentary about the weather, politics, people, and some kidding trash talking about you personally and your tennis skills. My brother was getting ready to play a tournament (not here) so we practiced hard. We were fairly quiet except for occasional motivational words uttered like, "Ah he!!, d@m_ it, etc. The courts around us, we heard trash talk from these mostly old men like: "Ay nako, pangit ang service mo" which means "Oh man, what an ugly serve!" Of course, they let out a big laugh especially if the trash talker makes a mistake. "Mahina ang forehand mo, parang babae!" which means, "Your forehand is weak, dude, like a girl.." Of course, they know that girls like Serena Williams has a harder forehand than any of them! Some days, the courts are just super crowded, especially Saturday and Sunday mornings before noon. For some reason, at the sun's apex, a lot of them go back home and drink beer while watching Manny Pacquiao re-runs. It gets busy other times, too but those early morning hours it's nuts. For free, though, these courts are hard to beat.
