About Park Tennis

Born on public courts, Park Tennis creates thoughtful gear for players who live for the long rally — and gives back to the places that made us. Every purchase helps restore courts, donate racquets, and keep tennis thriving for everyone.

Who are we?

We’re Eric and Joshua — two friends who love tennis.

The funny thing is, we play in very different places. Eric plays at in Indianapolis, while Joshua plays on Chicago’s North Side.

When we’d catch up about matches, it was never about the score or who won. It was about the people we played with and the places we played. For Eric, it was crisp whites and clubhouse tradition. For Joshua, it was park courts filled with characters , sometimes even shirtless guys playing on the next court (seriously, fellas, there’s great gear out there, keep the shirts on).

The more we talked, the clearer it became: tennis isn’t just about the points you win — it’s about the community you build along the way. That’s the heart of Park Tennis.

Park Tennis is our way of celebrating that community — creating gear inspired by the courts we play on and giving back to keep them alive for the next rally.

  • Joshua

    Joshua lives in Chicago, where the neighborhood courts double as both a training ground and a paved playground for his wife and their two kids.

    The idea for Park Tennis sparked during his runs through Chicago, passing courts alive with players of all ages and abilities. He finds pure joy in watching anyone rally, whether it’s seasoned hitters trading winners or beginners just learning to keep the ball in play. For Joshua, that’s the beauty of tennis: it belongs to everyone willing to pick up a racquet and give it a swing.

  • Eric

    Eric lives in Indianapolis with his wife, and their three kids. a family where tennis is more than a sport, it’s a shared tradition.

    A lover of fashion and style, he’s just as comfortable designing the Park Tennis Rugby Shirt as he is dining at The Polo Bar in NYC before catching a match. Whether rallying with his kids or trading shots with fellow tech CEOs, Eric plays with the same energy and elegance that’s defined his love for tennis from the start.
