OWU Tennis Centre

The Battling Bishop men's and women's tennis teams play their home matches at the OWU Tennis Centre, located on South Henry Street on the southeastern corner of campus.

The OWU Tennis Centre was constructed in 1968 and became the Bishops' home courts in 1969. The courts were most recently resurfaced in 2006. The OWU Tennis Centre played host to the 1978 NCAA Division III men's championship tournament and has been the site of North Coast Athletic Conference championship tournaments for both men and women.

From 1929 through 1968, the Bishops played their home matches at the Selby courts, located directly south of Selby Field. Those courts were converted into a parking lot after the opening of the OWU Tennis Centre.

When inclement weather forces play indoors, matches are held inside spacious Gordon Field House, nestled in the middle of the Ohio Wesleyan academic campus. The field house's 200-meter track encircles 4 tennis courts. Gordon Field House was named in recognition of the gift of Richard Gordon '62, a standout tennis player for the Battling Bishops.
