Adult lessons in Wainscott are a summer project or a year-round one, at the club, on a public court or on the court behind the house. We put Wainscott adults in touch with one certified coach who teaches grown-ups well, which is a skill of its own, and we publish the rates and permits that are public.
Adult lessons in Wainscott: what's different here
Private courts on the two-to-five-acre lots between Main Street and the dunes, East Hampton Indoor Tennis’s bubble on Daniels Hole Road at the hamlet line, and no public court of its own; Wainscott Green is a sitting park, not a playing field.
Wainscott adults can choose a public court, a club or their own within a few miles; the coach we send you to teaches at whichever you have, and books the court if you have none.
Wainscott has no public tennis court: the Town of East Hampton’s tennis page lists courts in Springs, Amagansett and Montauk only, and Wainscott Green, the Rick Del Mastro Memorial Park, is a central sitting and walking area with no sports facilities. East Hampton Indoor Tennis sits at 174 Daniels Hole Road on the East Hampton–Wainscott line, with six indoor and twenty outdoor courts, a pro shop and a clubhouse (a 2021 description; current rates are behind a brochure), and is the winter option for the western half of the Town.
Public courts in Wainscott are run by the Town of East Hampton Recreation Department (no public courts in the hamlet; the nearest are Amagansett’s on Abrahams Path); the tennis coach we put you in touch with knows the court rules and books the time.

FAQ
Adult lessons questions
Do I need to belong to a club to take tennis lessons in the Hamptons?
No. Montauk Downs State Park rents its six Har-Tru courts to anyone at $44 an hour ($24 for members) from mid-May to October; the Village of Southampton sells a court permit at $25 (individual) or $75 (family); Sag Harbor’s Mashashimuet Park, 8 clay and 2 hard courts, is a nonprofit’s public facility with lessons, clinics and a camp; Ross School Tennis Center’s six Hydro Har-Tru courts are open to the public and under a bubble in winter, with private lessons at $175–190; SPORTIME Amagansett sells non-members clinics, camps and private instruction with a surcharge; and the East Hampton Tennis Club teaches non-members. The Town of East Hampton’s public courts in Springs, Amagansett and Montauk post a rule against unauthorised commercial activity, so a paid lesson there needs the Recreation Department’s say-so. A coach with a court of their own is the other answer.

From nothing published to $44 an hour. Montauk Downs State Park rents its six Har-Tru courts at $44 an hour, $24 for members, from mid-May to October. The Village of Southampton sells a season permit at $25 for an individual and $75 for a family, plus a $150 key-fob deposit refunded if the fob comes back by December 31. The Town of Southampton’s 2026 fee schedule prices basketball and bocce courts at $20 an hour and lights at $40 but has no tennis line at all. The Town of East Hampton publishes no fee or hours for its courts in Springs, Amagansett and Montauk, only rules: one hour when others are waiting, no dogs, no unauthorised commercial activity. Sag Harbor’s Mashashimuet Park, a nonprofit’s 8 clay and 2 hard courts, publishes no fee either.
How does Hamptons Ace Tennis work?
You tell us about the player once: who is learning, their level, what kind of lessons, when, and where in the Hamptons you are based. We put you in touch with one coach who teaches that age and level in your part of the fork, certified by the RSPA or the PTR and background-checked, and they call you within one business day. From there it is their rate, their schedule and their court, or yours. It is free for players and parents; participating coaches pay us a referral fee for the introduction. We are not a club, a camp or a coaching business, and we do not sell your details; the one coach we send you to is the only one who gets your number. We cover 9 South Fork towns and 6 kinds of coaching.
