Club Mission

Players will develop the fundamental individual and team skills essential to the game through engaging drills, exercises, and a variety of short-sided games, with groupings based on grade and skill level. Because tennis is a gentleman’s sport, we will place equal emphasis on the virtues and habits of good sportsmanship, and on building the character befitting a true tennis player.

Events & Topics

When: Tuesdays

Time: 3:30-4:30

Where: Tennis courts

What to bring:
– 2 cans of balls

If the courts are rained out, the club is canceled. Do not expect an email or phone call. You make the call.

Skills & Benefits

Drills focus on building the fundamental shape of each stroke and its variations — forehand, backhand, serve, overhead, volley, slice, drop shot, and more. Do you play with a strategy, or simply return the ball? Do you go cross-court or down the line? Where should you place your serve? Our staff works closely with each player to develop the key fundamentals needed for optimal play.

Along the way, you’ll have the chance to challenge your classmates and friends — and climb to the top!
