The club

A century-old club on the shore of the Grand Lac des Ibis

A registered sports association (1901 law) founded on 3 April 1925, the Vésinet Ibis Tennis Club has six traditional clay courts, four of them on the shore of the Grand Lac, on the Île des Ibis — a listed natural site and an emblem of the “garden city”.

Our history

A century of history, from 1925 to today

  • 1925

    The club is founded on the initiative of James Willoughby. It opens with a prestigious men’s doubles featuring René Lacoste and Jacques Brugnon, followed by the first major opening tournament in June.

  • 1934

    The Île des Ibis is listed as a natural site: the club takes lasting root in the sporting life of Le Vésinet.

  • 1969 – 1972

    A fire destroys the buildings. Thanks to everyone’s sporting spirit, a larger and more comfortable Club House is rebuilt — without a single day’s interruption to play.

  • 1981

    Members fund the construction of two indoor courts in Chatou: tennis and the school now continue all year round.

  • 2018

    The VITC is recognised as an association of general interest: donations entitle donors to a 66% tax reduction.

  • 2025

    Club centenary: more than 100 mixed doubles played in period dress and a garden lunch bringing 130 guests together on the island.
