Weekly Tennis Event in McLean, VA (Virginia)

I recently started going to a weekly Tennis event in McLean, VA. This is totally run by one guy (Mike Convin) on every Saturday of the year! There isn't much information about this event on the web. Therefore, I am going to post some information here.

  • Location = OneLife Fitness, McLean, VA (Address: Old Meadow Rd, McLean, VA 22102, Google Maps). All the courts are indoors. They are either cooled (in Summer) or heated (in Winter).
  • Organized by Mike Convin.
  • The event happens every Saturday in two sessions.
  • First session (6:00 PM - 8:30 PM) is Tennis doubles. However, you join as an individual. You get assigned a partner and opponents based on your level. Then, you play 30 minute sets, and move up (if you win) or down (if you loose) to the next court. You get a new partner every set.
  • Second session (8:30 PM - 1:00 AM) is King of the Court. If you register as an individual, you get to play King of the Court for all these hours. If you register as a 4 (or more) person group, you get a full court to play with each other in addition to playing King of the Court with everyone.
  • Mike provides new balls for both sessions and cooks dinner for all participants! (yeah, even I was surprised).
  • If you want to register, you have to text Mike (text on the phone. Dont message on WhatsApp). He charges based on whether you attend one or both events. When I went in 2025 December, it was \$25.50 for one event or \$45.50 for both events per person.
  • I had a good time attending both events. I'd suggest going as a group of 4 if you go to the second session because it is a much better deal than just playing King of the Court for 4+ hours.
  • If you attend the event and any of this information has changed, please let me know via email so that I can update this page.
