What Montgomery Tennisplex does

Montgomery TennisPlex (MTP) is a privately held tennis and pickleball facility operating on nine acres at the entrance of South Germantown Recreational Park in Boyds, Maryland. Founded in 2012 by CEO Jack Schore alongside Anne Pallie and Kevin Dowdell as a public-private partnership with Montgomery County Parks & Recreation, the facility is the largest combined tennis and pickleball venue in the Washington DC Metropolitan Area (DMV). Infrastructure comprises 10 indoor hard tennis courts housed in three all-season air-conditioned bubbles, 4 outdoor lighted hard tennis courts, and 12 indoor pickleball courts (6 dedicated, 6 blended-line), operating 6 a.m. to 11 p.m., seven days a week. The facility uses the third-party CourtReserve online portal for court booking and program registration and does not require membership for play.

MTP serves roughly 7,500 active members across four primary personas — juniors (ages 4-18), adults and seniors, pickleball players, and an invitation-only advanced tier — and has trained over 255 champions to date under the leadership of Hall of Fame coach Jack Schore, who has personally coached 4-5 top-50 world-ranked professionals. Revenue is generated through seven diversified streams: court rentals (spot and seasonal contracts), pickleball subscriptions ($300-$900/year across three tiers plus $14/player/hour walk-in), private, semi-private and customized group tennis lessons ($40-$150/player/hour), session-based junior and adult programs ($250-$495/session), summer tennis and adventure camps for ages 4-14, USTA/UTR-sanctioned tournaments, and the Jack Schore Invitational (JSI) — a 41-week invitation-only intensive training program priced via monthly payments. Distribution is direct-to-consumer through CourtReserve, the front desk (240-477-4430), and tournament platforms; the company has no app, no proprietary technology stack, and no disclosed AI capabilities, and remains a single-site operator in the DMV region.
