Agreement with Centercourt Athletic Club to house Museum and Hall of Fame falls through. A new approach needed

The initial rental term between Centercourt Athletic Club (CAC) and the Platform Tennis Museum and Hall of Fame Foundation (PTMHOFF) had been for two years and was up for renewal in 2010. During the negotiations for the renewal it became clear that CAC had seen considerable growth in membership and the once “unused” space allocated for the Museum and Hall of Fame now was required for club activities. As a result the lease was not extended.

This was a considerable set back for the PTMHOFF as, in addition to rental payments, a significant amount of work had been done to develop the plan for the space and associated displays.

It was time for the PTMHOFF to regroup and rethink how to realize their dream.
