THE ULTIMATE IN TENNIS, PICKLEBALL AND PADEL TRAVEL
MEET OUR TEAM
Katie Steck — Director of Travel and Event Experiences
​
Katie joined CDT in 2014 as a traveling coach at many of our resort locations before landing at the Omni in Amelia Island overseeing guest tennis vacations. In 2016, she transitioned off court full time to oversee the EXPERIENCE team, guest vacations, and camps across the country. She loves to help create memorable experiences for players at all of our resort locations. You will find her at various events throughout the year, and she is always excited to get back out on the court and see guests in person.

Joey Hanf — Director of Events and Communications
​
Joey joined the CDT marketing team in 2016, and quickly became a part of the EXPERIENCE travel team shortly thereafter. A former college tennis player, you can probably find Joey on or off the court competing in something; tennis, padel, golf, video games...if there's a way to compete, he is most likely involved. You'll see him at many of our Signature Events with a clipboard in hand looking more serious than he really is, and he takes great pride in proper water-cooler construction. We're not sure exactly what that means, but you can ask him the next time you see him.

She enjoys finding the perfect camp and resort location for all of our racquets travelers and doing whatever she can to ensure they have the best possible experience.

Riley is driven about finding the perfect tennis and racquet experiences for our clients, ensuring they receive top-notch service and memorable experiences. When not assisting clients or managing sales, you might find him on the court, perfecting his backhand and working on his grunting technique (because who doesn’t need a little extra motivation on those tough shots?).
