Our Junior Program Philosophy

Tennis is more than just a sport, it's a way of life. We believe in the power of tennis to promote physical fitness, mental well-being, and personal development. We are committed to providing a supportive and inclusive environment where players of all ages and skill levels can improve their game, make new friends, and have fun. We believe in the importance of technical proficiency and tactical understanding, but also in the value of sportsmanship and camaraderie. We strive to create a culture of excellence and continuous improvement, where every player is encouraged to reach their full potential both on and off the court.

About Our Junior Program

We understand that building a strong foundation in tennis is crucial for young players. That's why we've created a unique and modern curriculum, designed by leading USPTA, PTR, and professional players, that focuses on personalized coaching, progressive training, and engaging exercises. Our team of passionate and relatable instructors use a methodical approach to ensure that every child not only learns the fundamentals, but also have fun while doing it.

For more information about payments, cancellations, and make-ups, please view our Policies.

Clinic Placement

We understand that a child's development is influenced by a variety of factors such as innate ability, amount of practice, and physical attributes. Therefore, we don't think it's appropriate to limit a child's progress in a class solely based on their age. While we do provide broad age ranges as a general reference, we recommend considering the class prerequisites or recommendations for your child when registering.

Evaluations: To ensure proper placement, an evaluation will be conducted for players 8 years and older.
