Be HAPPY, Slap Fuzz.

Be HAPPY, Slap Fuzz.

discover a tennis community unlike any other…where the vibes are chill. the pros are sweet. the characters are both local and imported. the 105 is endless. the music is almost always bumping. the faces are smiling. the newfound friendships are real. and the sweat can be found no matter the month. 

Founded by an obsession for the game, and the inability to live a life without it. 

  • It started with an 8 year old girl from Montauk who fell in love with tennis after her first lesson at the Montauk Downs. She may not have achieved her dream of going pro, but she got to create something extra special in that dreams place.

  • Post grad, she found herself happiest on a tennis court. In 2017, she successfully got the bid for the Montauk Downs. 

    What started as one club, became two with the Yacht Club. Things were blossoming, the Downs had never seen so much action thanks to a little game called 105 that the Chad taught us. The Downs became the starting point of 105 in the northeast.

    …but at last, no good story is free of hurtles.

  • In 2022, she lost her Downs lease renewal. This twist of fate shifted the party to Hither Hills Racquet Club where the buzz kept growing. After two seasons, the new guy forfeited his Downs lease, which put her back in the helms at the Downs…a feat made possible by the most loyal, incredible community.

  • as we enter our 10th season, we continue to build and improve…while trying to master il dolce far niente…

    and with that, we welcome you into our little bubble of a world where we strive to revel in the magic of tennis and all that it brings us…

Meet the Crew

  • Molly

    Scheduling Wizard // Montauk, NY

    She started as a pro, grinding away on court…now she is mostly behind the scenes playing tetris with the schedule, answering messages, sometimes feeding a 105 with a babe strapped to her as she lovingly heckles away.

  • Andrew

    Jack of All Trades // Montauk, NY

    Knight in Shining Armor aka our one and only handyman that can typically be found rolling courts before the sun is up, feeding a 105, chasing farrah, or doing check ins. He is a crucial cog in the wheel.

  • Stefan

    Seasoned Pro // Queens, NY 

    To know him is to love him, whether that be his smiling or brooding side. His teaching technique is unlike any other and his grace on court, whether playing lefty or righty, cannot go unnoticed. We are pleased to have him back for his 6th Season with us.

  • Neill

    Mumbai, India // Freshie 2.0

    Who doesn’t love a freshie. This one technically dabbled with us last fall when the skeleton crew needed him most, hence the 2.0 title. Neill is sweet and caring. He has the mentality of just being happy to be here, and we absolutely love that. He is fresh out of college, which means he is here to grind with us from start to finish!! 

  • Dido

    Lightly Seasoned // Varna, Bulgaria

    This boy has a huge heart and is guaranteed to make you smile and have you dripping sweat. He is a wonderful athlete and coach. We are so excited to have Dido back on court with us for the full season!!

  • Agustina

    Newbie // Uruguay

    Truly a new face for this 2026 season, and what better than one with South American gusto! Agustina is still playing college tennis and ready to rock come May. Whether you’re 8 or 80 she’ll take good care of you on court.

  • Duarte

    Freshie 2.0 // Lisbon, Portugal

    Another freshie 2.0 that we are thrilled to have this season. Once you step on court with him you’ll quickly realize he is an absolute sweetie pie, rocking the stache and here for the good vibes.

  • Bolor

    London, UK

    She is back again, but only for a bit for her 7th season! If you don’t know Bolor, she’s got serious grace on court, the kids love her, and if she can play into a good game of 105, she most certainly will!! Get her while you can!!

  • Ferran

    Newbie//Barcelona, Spain

    Who doesn’t love a tennis enthusiast…and that’s all she wrote.

  • Matt

    Lightly Seasoned // Madliena, Malta

    Malta Matt is back for his second season with us. The boy is ready to work and will be starting in June after filling his social calendar with some weddings back home. He packs a punch on court and we are so happy to have him with us into the fall now that he is a post grad!

  • Reenie

    Fire Cracker // Cairo, Egypt

    There is a theme here….to know her is to love her as well…you can hear her coming from a mile away. If she is not smiling or barking on court, something is not right…we are so happy to have reenie back with us for her third season.

  • Other Suprises...

    Veterans//Across the Pond

    They’re spunky, and can be a little spicy with fun accents to go with it. Obviously crowd favorites. Won’t give away more than that…
