  • Open to players grades 5th through 8th

  • Six week season beginning in April

  • 6 team practices for players of all levels

  • 10 matches with local middle schools

3 REASONS
WHY TENNIS IS AWESOME!

01
SOCIAL

Tennis offers a unique social aspect by allowing your child to play independently or with a partner. Singles play requires calculation, and self-determination. Doubles play does too, however they must also constantly coordinate physically and verbally with their teammate. In both cases, they are still part of a team. Not all sports can say that!

02
EXERCISE

While some sports might have your child parked on a bench or kicking dirt out in the field, tennis will keep them moving for the entire match. Tennis matches involve just two or four players at a time, so your child will have to constantly move to ensure their success. Whether in game play or during practice, they will be sure to get a workout.

03
LIFE-LONG

When your child learns to play tennis, they are learning a sport for life! Some sports are not as easy to continue after high school or college. They can either be too high-impact or may require a big team to gather in order play. Adult tennis is available in just about every community, and because it's low-impact, can often be enjoyed well into senior years.
