The Rome Tennis Center at Berry College has been selected as the 2028 host site for the NCAA Division III Men’s and Women’s Tennis Championships.
This will be the first time a Berry facility has hosted a D-III national championship event. Previously, the college has welcomed competitors for NCAA regional or super-regional competition in cross country, softball and volleyball, as well as individual playoff games in football.
Recognized as an “Outstanding Facility” by the United States Tennis Association, the Rome Tennis Center at Berry College boasts 57 courts spread across 30 acres of Berry-donated property adjacent to Mount Berry Mall. The city-owned complex opened in 2016 with funding from a voter-approved SPLOST (local sales tax for special purpose). Indoor courts were added in 2020, and in 2022 a Fairfield Inn owned by Berry and managed by Atlanta-based Hotel Equities opened next door.
