More about Lifetime Activities
Founded in 1993, Lifetime Activities provides municipal tennis and other recreational programs to communities across Northern California.
Its offerings include tennis, pickleball, padel, table tennis, badminton, basketball, and chess — creating opportunities for people of all ages, interests, and skill levels to stay active and connected.
The organization also serves as a facility operator and consultant, helping cities expand access to quality programming.
Today, Lifetime Activities operates six Bay Area locations with more than 250 staff members, serving thousands of families each year.
Led by owner and CEO Dana Gill — a former collegiate and touring player, Elite USPTA-certified pro, and grassroots advocate — Lifetime Activities is well-regarded for its commitment to high-quality programs, community engagement, and well-maintained facilities.
In 2024, Lifetime Activities transitioned from their longtime club management provider to CourtReserve — a major change for an organization of their size and scope.
With six multi-sport facilities, unique municipal requirements at each location, and a large customer database, the stakes for a smooth transition were high.
But with the support of the CourtReserve team — through guided onboarding, extensive training resources, and responsive support —the process proved far easier than expected.
The benefits became clear almost immediately. CourtReserve’s user-friendly platform centralized operations across locations and offered greater functionality than their previous provider. The platform also simplified every aspect of their club operations including bookings, registrations, payments, and more.
Additionally, the Branded Mobile App gave members convenient self-service access, making programs and services more accessible to a wider audience. Phone calls and confusion dropped, player satisfaction rose, and staff gained valuable time to focus on in-person service and programming instead of admin tasks.
Less than a year into the partnership, Lifetime Activities has seen improved efficiency, stronger engagement, and a better overall experience for members and staff alike.
Looking ahead, Lifetime Activities is confident in CourtReserve’s commitment to innovation, continuous product development, integrations, and openness to feedback — ensuring the platform remains the best-fit solution and continues to evolve alongside their mission of fostering wellness, recreation, and community through sports and activities.
