Chris@AceSpaceCourts.com
At AceSpace, we know that time is of the essence. Whether you’re scheduling tennis lessons a month in advance, or organizing an impromptu doubles match, you want the process to be quick. After all, if you can book a restaurant, a car, a hotel with just a few clicks—why not a tennis court?
Founded in 2018, AceSpace is the premier court-booking platform in New York. The app easily locates available tennis courts in your area, eliminating the hassle of Web searches and phone calls. Whatever price, surface or time slot you prefer, AceSpace ensures you get the court you want, every time.
Thanks to its staff of tennis enthusiasts, AceSpace was designed with both players and facilities in mind. We help tennis centers manage their bookings automatically, working as a stand-alone system or in tandem with older technology. We work directly with facility managers, bridging the gap between manual bookings and digitally-oriented players.
Now live at Park Avenue Tennis Facility, Alley Pond Tennis Center, East Brunswick Racquet Club, and Windsor Tennis Club, our gift to you is a stress-free tennis schedule. Like the best tennis players, AceSpace is fast and reliable, and no matter how busy your life gets, AceSpace is ready to steer you towards the nearest clay, grass or hard surface.

Do you know tennis rules?
You serve. As your opponent hits a winning return, a string breaks on his racket. He retrieves a second racket from his bag. Is this a let? Point? First serve?
a) Let, first serve
b) Your point
c) His point.
Your doubles partner has a habit to call your serves in or out during practices. During a tournament game, he’s still calling your serves out. Can he call your serves out in a USTA match?
a) Yes
b) No
Answers:
Answer 1: His point. The point was played in good faith. He did not delay the game because his racket was in his bag on the court. If you had returned the ball, he could continue playing with a broken string. Code 45.
Answer 2: No. Your partner should not be calling your first serves out. The receiver may return a long or wide serve if they didn’t see it clearly. They would be giving you the benefit of the doubt. Code 26

inPhorm, the international tennis, golf and active brand known for its “simple elegance and classic” outfits, is adding bright beautiful colors with sparkling details to its holiday collection “Fuchsia Rose.”
We asked the creative director, Saad Hajidin, what inspired his color palette this season? His answer: “After months of our somber mood globally, I think people are ready for a bright and beautiful collection to uplift their spirits and add a little joy to the holiday season. Red is the dominant color during the holidays, but I wanted to give them something a little bit different, and that’s how I came up with “Fuchsia Rose” — a blend of red and magenta that reminds me of evening primroses. I’ve also added sparkling details and a pattern of watercolor brush strokes that evoke cascading waterfalls.”
inPhorm’s Holiday 2020 collection is filled with styles that transition from day into evening — tennis looks that easily blend in at cocktail hour.
In the last few months, inPhorm’s team has been engaged in conversations with its customers, gathering reviews of products, fits and functionality. “We like to say that by listening to our customers, we ‘Stay inPhormed,’” Saad notes.
