Jason DeGroff, Swing Racquet + Paddle

A little more than 5 years ago, Raleigh almost became home to the new USTA headquarters that eventually landed just outside Orlando. But the message was clear: Raleigh has a lot of people who spend a lot of time with racquets in their hands.

Now the Triangle is on the verge of getting a 45-acre racquet and paddle sports super park that includes facilities, food, different membership offerings (including courts for free public use), event space and sportstainment (TM) facility: Swing Racquet + Paddle.

In recent weeks, Swing has announced partnerships with Wilson, chef Fabio Viviani and tennis academy Good to Great. We talked to managing partner of Swing Jason DeGroff about these partnerships, which sports are included at Swing (and why), the design and the origin story of what will truly be a one of a kind facility in Raleigh.
