Hello Tennis Fans!

In years past, the official tennis season has begun each year in January, as soon as it is at least 50 degrees Fahrenheit and not blowing 30 mph. We normally attend four to five local tournaments between February and March prior to the District Tennis Tournament which is usually held during the first week of April each year. The tournament schedule will be the a little different this year due to conflicts with the state testing schedule. Practice for returning players will also begin in September for the other two days each week. However, the returning advanced players should expect to practice a minimum of four days a week after the holidays/winter season in preparation for tournament season.

EQUIPMENT/ATTIRE:

Each student must furnish his/her own tennis racket and personal attire for practice. Playing barefoot or in street shoes is NOT acceptable on the courts.

RESPONSIBILITY OF STUDENT PLAYERS:

Good sportsmanship is a MUST. I will be going over on/off court etiquette with the students, as well as modeling the same at all times. Taking care of our nice tennis courts is also a MUST. While the public is invited to use the courts after practice hours are set, the whole community is responsible for cleaning up and helping to take care of our courts.

TENNIS PRACTICE AND TOURNAMENT SCHEDULE: see calendar for each month, Jan., Feb., Mar.
