The Surprise Tennis and Racquet Complex received national recognition by the United States Tennis Association as the recipient of the 2008 USTA Outstanding Facility Award. 

The Community and Recreation Services Department will be awarded this honor Sept. 1 at the USTA semi-annual meeting in New York City. 

"We are extremely proud to receive this award and honored to be recognized amongst the top facilities in the nation," said Mark Coronado, director of Community and Recreation Services.
