Club Fit Brings Mouratoglou Tennis to Westchester with Two New Tennis Centers in Briarcliff and Jefferson Valley

Mouratoglou Tennis Center New York and Mouratoglou Tennis Center Westchester bring the Mouratoglou name and methodology to New York for the first time, a year after the partnership launched at The Thoreau Club

BRIARCLIFF MANOR, N.Y., Nov. 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Club Fit today announced that its Briarcliff and Jefferson Valley clubs have joined the global network of Mouratoglou Tennis Centers, expanding the partnership between Mouratoglou and The Pinebrook Group. Tennis at Club Fit Briarcliff is now Mouratoglou Tennis Center New York, and tennis at Club Fit Jefferson Valley is now Mouratoglou Tennis Center Westchester.

The two new centers build on the success of Mouratoglou Tennis Center Boston at The Thoreau Club in Concord, Mass., which launched in 2025 as the first location of its kind in New England. With today’s announcement, The Pinebrook Group, which owns all three clubs, operates three Mouratoglou Tennis Centers in the Northeast, part of a global network of more than 20 Mouratoglou Tennis Centers.

Founded by Patrick Mouratoglou, former coach to Serena Williams, Stefanos Tsitsipas, Holger Rune and Naomi Osaka, among others, the academy is known for producing more than 40 Top 100 players, earning 10 Grand Slam titles, and achieving international acclaim for its athlete-first approach.

“New York has always been a special place for me as the home state of the US Open, one of the most iconic tournaments in our sport. Opening not one, but two Mouratoglou Tennis Centers here is incredibly exciting. I’m proud to partner with the fantastic teams at The Pinebrook Group, who share our passion for excellence and player development. Together, we strive to create more than just locations to play tennis. We want to build environments where players of all ages and levels can feel inspired, reach their full potential, and grow both on and off the court.”

— Patrick Mouratoglou, founder of Mouratoglou Tennis Center

The Mouratoglou methodology, close to home

Every coach at both clubs will be trained and certified in the Mouratoglou methodology, with multiple trainings and certifications each year; the first training is already underway. Club Fit has also added eight new coaches to its tennis team: six at Briarcliff and two at Jefferson Valley.

The program will be guided by Massimo Policastro, Tennis Director at The Thoreau Club, who led the launch of Mouratoglou Tennis Center Boston and will oversee the Mouratoglou program across all three Pinebrook clubs.

“What we built at The Thoreau Club showed how much players in the Northeast want world-class coaching close to home. Bringing the Mouratoglou methodology to Briarcliff and Jefferson Valley extends that same standard to Westchester, for juniors, adults, and competitive players alike.”

— Massimo Policastro, Tennis Director, The Thoreau Club Tennis Academy-Mouratoglou Tennis Center Boston

The indoor hard courts at both clubs will be repainted in Mouratoglou colors beginning this winter. New windscreens and court dividers will follow in spring 2027, when the seasonal bubbles come down, and new Mouratoglou signage arrives at both clubs in early 2027.
