 Junior Tennis Group Clinics

Students enrolled in levels 1,2 & 3 will attend one clinic per week. Students in level 4 & 5 will attend one clinic per week, but will also participate in our supervised match play (Playdays) on Fridays or Saturdays.
Please read the following descriptions to help you choose which class to choose for your child. If you are unsure we will be happy to evaluate your player prior to registration. To schedule an appointment for an evaluation, please call the tennis department at x 31.

A pro will be on hand to set up matches and will keep track of player’s scores. This year we have divided the level 4 & 5 players. The level 4 will meet on Fridays from 5 - 6:30pm and the level 5 will meet on Saturdays from 6-8pm.
