Brunch Before the Baseline: Ladies Tennis & Brunch Social 🩷

​Come for a tennis lesson and a brunch spread... and leave with 15 new friends and a forehand that is, respectfully, developing.

​Join The Fairway Social Club for a beginner/intemediate-friendly tennis + brunch social at Goldman Tennis Center at Golden Gate Park on July 25.

​We’ll start with a real brunch spread — banh mi sandwiches, bagels with cream cheese, smoked salmon, pineapple buns, Arsicault croissants, pastries, fruit, coffee, and matcha — then head to the courts for a 90-minute tennis lesson.

​This is for the girls who want to try tennis without the country club pressure. Come solo, come with a friend, come if you haven’t picked up a racquet since middle school. You do not need to be good. You just need to show up.

​What’s included:

• ​Brunch social starting at 12:30 PM

• ​Tennis lesson from 2:30–4:00 PM

• ​2 instructors

• ​All equipment provided

• ​Group split by level: 8 beginners + 8 intermediates

• ​Women-only, solo-friendly community setting

​Spots are capped at 16 so everyone gets real instruction and the group still feels intimate.

​Come for the brunch. Stay for the tennis. Leave with new friends, a new skill, and maybe your new Saturday thing.

​The Fairway Social Club is a Bay Area women’s social club for anyone who wants more plans that feel active, social, and actually worth leaving the house for.

​We host beginner-friendly sports, wellness, brunch, and community events for women who want to try new things without the pressure of being good at them.

FAQ

​Do I need to know how to play tennis?
No. This event is designed for beginners and intermediates. We’ll have 8 beginner spots and 8 intermediate spots so you’re not thrown into a group that feels too advanced.

​What counts as beginner?
You’re a beginner if you’ve never played, haven’t played in years, don’t know the rules, or feel nervous about being on a court. You are very much the target audience.

​What counts as intermediate?
You’re intermediate if you can rally a little, have taken a lesson before, or generally know how to hold your own but still want coaching and a social setting.

​Do I need to bring a racquet?
No. Equipment is provided. You can bring your own if you have one, but you don’t need to.

​What should I wear?
Wear something comfortable that you can move in. Tennis dress, skirt, leggings, shorts, tank, tee, sneakers — all fine. No need to look like you belong at Wimbledon.

​Is brunch before tennis?
Yes. Brunch starts at 12:30 PM, and the lesson runs from 2:30–4:00 PM. We’ll eat, mingle, then head to the courts.

​What food is included?
Banh mi sandwiches, bagels with cream cheese, smoked salmon, pineapple buns, Arsicault croissants, pastries, fruit, coffee, and matcha.

​Can I come alone?
Yes. Most Fairway Social events are built to be solo-friendly. Come alone, meet people, and we’ll make it easy to talk to the group.

​Is this women-only?
Yes. This event is designed as a women’s sports-social experience.

​How many people will be there?
This event is capped at 16 people total: 8 beginners and 8 intermediates.

​What if I’m bad at tennis?
Perfect. Truly. This is not a performance. This is brunch, community, and learning something new without the pressure.
