The Western Michigan men's and women's tennis teams play their outdoor matches at Sorensen Courts, named for former men's tennis coach Ray "Hap" Sorensen. The courts were resurfaced in the summer of 2016.
The upper Sorensen Courts feature eight blue-surfaced courts that were completed in July of 2006 and the lower Sorensen Courts feature 12 blue-surfaced courts that were completed in July of 2007. The entire upper facility is lighted for play deep into the night and features water and electric capabilities for each court. The entire area is surrounded by wind screens and is equipped with bleacher seating for spectators. The Broncos hosted the 2017 MAC Men's Tennis Championships.Â
Sorensen also acts as one of the homes for the USTA Boys 18's and 16's Super Nationals each year.
