I am a huge fan of RAMP Tennis! If you have a child who is serious about tennis and has a desire…read moreto get better, then this is the place for them. The coaches are very dedicated and genuinely interested in helping the kids in their program grow and improve as a junior tennis player. They make the practices enjoyable for the kids and although the kids are working hard in their drills and exercises, they are doing with with smiles on their faces. I'm the dad of a 7 year old boy who has been playing tennis for about a year and a half. We recently decided to look for a tennis clinic that offered a bit more in terms of quality of instruction and development philosophy. I happened across the Ramp Tennis website and drove the family down one Friday just to see what the program was all about. The next Monday, we returned and have been going ever since. My son is a very shy kid and usually does not like to join in activities with a bunch of kids he doesn't know. He found the coaches (and the other kids) very welcoming. He really likes his coaches and enjoys playing with the other kids who all seem to share a love for the game of tennis. The facilities are first class - it is the USTA Training Center - West located at the StubHub Center. There are a bunch of very nice hard courts and 4 green clay courts which the kids absolutely LOVE. In southern California, there are just a handful of locations where kids can get some experience on Har-tru. If you want to hear one of the coaches, Marc Lucero, talk about the program check out the following link: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/ur10snetwork/2013/05/13/parenting-aces

My child loves RAMP! When we were looking for a new tennis academy for our daughter to train, she…read morehad certain things she was looking for...she wanted an academy where she connected with the coaches, an academy with experienced coaches that would help her develop her game so that she could achieve her lofty goals, someplace where she could work hard and was pushed to work even harder, and someplace that offered positive reinforcement with a little fun mixed in. She found that all at RAMP!! What makes RAMP different from other tennis academies (and we've experienced several), is the passion, enthusiasm and dedication of the coaches. It's immediately noticeable!! It's an incredible environment for the players. The coaches are true professionals who are committed to helping each player become the best they can be! The coach-to-player ratio is low so that each player gets the opportunity to work on their specific individual needs. Our daughter always has a huge smile on her face after a RAMP practice and her tournament results are reflecting all the hard work she's putting in at RAMP! What a great combination!!!

Great place to play pickleball! Been playing here for about 4 years. Not sure why it's taken me so…read morelong to submit a review. Very nice family owned business. Ken and Courtney, the owners, are amazing. You can take lessons from their daughter, Kenadi, who is a pickleball pro and a fantastic coach. There are Lots of courts to choose from so I have rarely had any issues getting a court. Reasonable prices. Have always had a great experience. Only downside is that during peak times, parking can be a problem.

Started off playing tennis here, then moved on to pickleball, and now I'm back to playing tennis…read more I signed up for the advance group session and it was pretty fun. The designated pickleball courts are really nice. I always feel like it was a treat every time my friends were able to reserve those courts. The tennis courts with the pickleball lines can be confusing the first time you hit on it. The tennis lines are white and the pickleball lines are black. You get used to it after a bit. But the lights here are horrible. You don't even have to hit the ball too high and the ball will get lost in the lights. And the parking here is also horrible. If you get here around 5:30-6PM, (especially if it's soccer season) good luck finding parking. People just make their own parking spots along the red zone (I'm also guilty of this). But with all that said, I'll definitely join a group session again. Especially since it's summer right now and the sun is staying out longer. I just got a new racket and I feel like I need to hit more than once a week to get my money's worth. Lol So I'll see you soon South Bay Tennis!

The lights were bright, so it was a pleasure to play there at night. The courts were medium in speed. The team we played against had many ex-USC varsity tennis players on it. The JKC team is headed by the men's USC tennis coach, Peter Smith! There's a small pro shop as you walk in the front door, then there's a nice size swimming pool (looked like an Olympic size pool). The club has a large locker room. Also, the tennis facility had a lot of lessons going on and it looked like they had a very good junior tennis program. I would love to play at the club more often if I was a member or lived in the area. Tennis is the best sport! Xie Xie!!

The swimming pool is nice, with an adjacent hot tub sauna/spa. They have private (one on one) and group swimming lessons with an on-facilities coach/trainer/instructor, John who is available for varied fees/rates. He's a really nice person and an effective swim teacher, especially for kids, but can teach both children and adults alike.

this is regarding the kids camp which operates in the spring and summer. Thank God this camp is…read morestill operating and going strong! and thank you for allowing non-members to participate. My kids have been coming here for years and they love it for all of the following reasons 1) food is great, yes, included and kid-friendly 2) staff are kind and experienced - for some reason a lot of psychology majors 3) fun games! watching campers versus counselors dodgeball just left me leaving with the biggest grin they swim every day which basically means it's a spring break-like pool party daily. My kids have been living it up with poolside shirley temples and fries. it's wonderful to see that there is still a place with JOY. Not about getting ahead academically, or being the most competitive athlete, but just about having good ol' fashioned fun. I hope my kids stay long enough to maybe one day be staff.

A locals favorite! It's been a while since I've taken a walk here and I can see that they are…read morebuilding more spaces for folks to play and get active. They currently have a wide walkway to get your steps in, multiple baseball fields, batting cages, tennis and pickleball courts, a street hockey field, outdoor equipment, and plenty of tables next to an outdoor cooking area. Of course, a fun playground for the kiddos. Right next to it was a pleasant surprise- a free little library! It was a little empty but I'm sure folks will add to it soon. Highly recommend you checking this park out this summer.

Went here for a park show. Redondo Beach Ballet of performing arts. The art show was cute. Boys…read moreand girls of all ages performing. There is plenty of parking on the North West side. This park is spacious. Has picnic tables, aquatic facilities, basketball court, pickel ball and a good outdoor stage presentation facility for events. Place fits over a 1000 people at this outdoor event venue. Bring your pop up tent and your fold up chairs to feel comfortable. With that said, my #1 gripe about this park, only two unisex toilets available! Who would put a 2 person bathroom with a cipher code that can accidentally lock. These two bathrooms is stationed like a miniature hut stationed by the entertainment area. Who ever engineered these bathrooms should be reprimanded. It was a dumb idea for cipher codes to be implemented. One bathroom was accidently locked with no one in there! Terrible idea. Over a 1000 people and only as two restrooms nearby! If you had to use the use restrooms.. you have to walk in the other side of the park where the picnic area is located. It is quite a walk! Walked or wait 30 minutes. Overall, its comfortable park minus the restroom situation.

There are lots of high and climbable structures. The grassy area is huge so kids can roam freely. The grassy area is hilly but there are flatter areas that are good for picnics too. They have picnic tables and there is plenty of parking. There's a tennis court, baseball field and bathrooms. It feels private and is away from traffic/cars. The bad: The parking lot is gravel/dirt so it can get pretty dirty with puddles on a rainy day. The interesting: There are hills surrounding it with homes. You can also see horses. There are also a lot of crows. You need to fill out a park permit if you're hosting an event here with 20+ people.
