A tradition of excellence
On May 24, 1965 a foresighted group of businessmen and tennis players including Harry V. Barton, John C. Hamilton, Robert A. Leonard, William R. McGehee, Dr. M.J. Rathborne, Jr., Thomas P. Singletary, J. King Woolf, Jr., Dudley W. Coates, Jr., James W. Leake, Charles W. McCoy, Dr. William G. Palfrey, Frank P. Simoneaux, Dr. Roy White, and Charles H. Zeanah incorporated the Bocage Racquet Club to meet the need for a private, first-class tennis and recreational facility. We are indebted to the founders of the club and continue to honor their mission of providing a first class tennis and social club.
