Junior Programs

All clinics are broken into two-week sessions and are held on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Both age groups A & B will focus on introducing tennis through basic tennis stroke development including rallying, serving, simple drills and tennis games, while further emphasizing motor skills and enhancing athleticism. Age group C is designed for high school level students thinking about competing or ready to compete in high school. The skills sets of this group will range from beginner to advanced with players divided based on ability. These sessions will also focus on foundational skills and athletic development. All clinics are staffed by USPTR certified coaches,  & current college tennis players.

We offer a variety of different leagues (singles, senior singles, doubles, senior doubles, and mixed doubles) to fit your skills and desires. All of our leagues are self-scheduled, meaning that players are responsible for contacting opponents and setting up matches once the contact sheet is distributed. This allows you to have flexibility when scheduling your matches to assist you in your busy lives!
