The Woodlands Township is proudly celebrating a significant milestone with its innovative tennis ball recycling program, which has recently earned the prestigious “Green Tennis” certification. This accolade is awarded to tennis facilities that demonstrate exceptional commitment to environmental sustainability through effective recycling practices. Since the program’s inception in 2022, the community has successfully recycled more than 10,000 tennis balls, showcasing their dedication to eco-friendly initiatives.
Tennis players and enthusiasts are encouraged to continue supporting this green initiative by depositing their used tennis balls at designated drop-off points throughout The Woodlands:

- Cranebrook Park, 11800 Crane Brook Drive, The Woodlands, TX 77382
