or the first time in 10 seasons, Florida Atlantic men’s and women’s tennis teams will have a home on the Boca Raton campus.

FAU Athletics announced on Thursday via a news release on their website that it will be building an eight-court facility next to the sand volleyball courts, across from FAU Arena.

The men’s and women’s programs have played their home matches off campus at Boca Raton’s Patch Reef Park since the 2005-2006 season, turning their old home courts into a practice spot.
