Everyone Berlin tennis player knows the dilemma: it's summer, the sun is shining and you really want to play outside.
But as soon as you've booked your place at the club, dark clouds gather over Reinickendorf. Or the other way around: it's winter, you're cooped up in a stuffy air dome and longing for fresh air and daylight.
What if you didn't have to choose? What if you could combine the weather safety of an indoor court with the freedom of an outdoor court?
Welcome to the Sportcenter Wittenau. We offer you something that you will have to search for a long time in Berlin: The only indoor tennis center in the north of the city with a fully automatic convertible roof.
Find out why this feature will completely change your tennis experience and why players from all over Reinickendorf, Tegel and Frohnau come to us.
The best of both worlds: Indoor comfort meets outdoor feeling
Normally there is a strict separation in tennis:
- Outdoor (mostly ash): Beautiful in the sun, but unplayable in the rain, susceptible to wind and high-maintenance.
- Indoor (carpet/granulate/hardcourt): Weatherproof, but often dark, stuffy and without that real „summer feeling“.
Our facility in Wittenauer Straße removes these boundaries. Our two courts are housed in a solid construction whose roof can be opened in good weather.
This means for your match:
- Sun on the skin: You can feel the warmth and the fresh air, just like on an outdoor pitch.
- Perfect light: No artificial floodlights during the day. You play in natural daylight, which improves responsiveness and is easy on the eyes.
- Weather guarantee: Are clouds gathering or is it starting to drizzle? No problem. The roof is closed and you simply continue playing. While others on the cinder courts in Reinickendorf have to abandon their courts, you can finish your set dry.
The floor: Grand Slam level instead of red socks
Another decisive advantage of our convertible hall is the floor covering. Anyone who plays outside knows the pitfalls of red ash (sand): Bouncing balls due to unevenness (court faults), slippery lines and the eternal red dust in your socks and car.
In our hall you play on a High-quality sprung floor with special coating. This surface is comparable to the hardcourts of major tournaments (such as the US Open), but offers decisive advantages for recreational players:
- Gentle on the joints: The sprung floor cushions every step. This is easy on the knees and back, even during intense matches.
- Honest ball bounce: The ball always bounces evenly. No coincidences, no excuses. Only your technique counts here.
- Cleanliness: You leave the pitch as clean as when you entered it.
The convertible roof allows you to enjoy the atmosphere of an outdoor court while retaining the technical perfection and cleanliness of an indoor court.
Your home game in Reinickendorf
We are proud to be a sporting home for the north of Berlin. Whether you come from Wittenau, the Märkisches Viertel, Waidmannslust or Heiligensee - the Sportcenter Wittenau is centrally located and easily accessible.
We see ourselves as Modern alternative to the classic tennis club. There are many traditional clubs in Reinickendorf, and that's a good thing. But not everyone wants to make a long-term commitment, pay admission fees or work hours just to swing a club from time to time.
The following applies to us: Tennis for all.
- No membership: You only pay when you play.
- Spontaneity: Simply book your „convertible space“ online when the weather is nice.
- Everything on site: Free parking, changing rooms and showers are available.
After the match: regeneration & socializing
A perfect tennis day doesn't end with the match ball. The atmosphere at the Sportcenter Wittenau also includes the „afterwards“.
Just imagine: You have played for an hour under an open roof, worked off your energy and enjoyed the sun. Afterwards, you have two options for the perfect end to the day:
- Relax on the terrace: Enjoy a cool drink or a snack in our restaurant. When the weather is fine, our outdoor terrace is the ideal place to analyze the match with your playing partner.
- Wellness for the muscles: Use our Sauna directly in the center. A sauna session after sport promotes regeneration, prevents sore muscles and rounds off the sports experience.
This is the little bit of vacation feeling that we would like to offer you in the middle of Berlin.
Conclusion: Give it a try!
You have to experience it to understand the difference. The feeling of standing in a hall, looking up and seeing the blue sky is unique.
Whether you are an ambitious tournament player looking for a reliable floor or a recreational player who simply wants to have fun with exercise: our convertible hall in Reinickendorf is ready for you.
Don't wait for the perfect weather forecast - our tennis weather is always perfect.
