About Us

Have you noticed? Tennis players are very passionate about their sport!

I love tennis and have been playing it for over 45 years. I want to bring that passion to you by sharing my experiences with you. We want to create one of the best tennis buying experiences at any California tennis store.  Orange county tennis is a hotbed of tennis in Southern California and we are a major part of that experience. If there is anything that you see needs to be added or improved upon during your visit to this site, please drop an email to me at info@tennisdudes.com.

VB Tennis Corp currently consists of a Retail store - The Pro Shop at Laguna Niguel Racket Club and an Internet Site - www.TennisDudes.com

Van Banks is the owner of both of these entities and lives in Laguna Niguel, Calif. Van has been playing tennis for over 45 years and has been stringing tennis rackets for over 30 years. His passion turned into a business in the 1970's when he started a home stringing business in Redlands, Ca.

Van slowly built the business until he opened a retail store in 1992 in Laguna Beach.   In 1995 he took over the pro shop at one of the premier tennis clubs in Orange County, Ca - Laguna Niguel Racquet Club serving over 1200 members playing tennis in Orange County.

Recently Van decided to offer a unique experience to purchace tennis and other sport products on the web. This expansion has allowed Van to offer to his clients a diverse supply of reliable tennis products locally and worldwide to his customers while maintaining quality service and support at a reasonable price.

Please let us know if there is any product or service that we could add to make your shopping experience the very best it can be!
