(formerly the Complete Player Program)

  • For kids who want to focus on tennis several days per week and families who can support that desire.
  • Organized by maturity and ability level for Red, Orange, Green, and Yellow scaled for faster-development of players.  These are custom formed groups, by invitation.
  • A combination of Instruction, Practice, Focused Practice, and Competitive Play, including Physical Fitness, Mental/Emotional Discipline and Skill/Ability Acquisition.
  • Perfect for “level 8” and above players (8. COMPETITIVE WITH GOALS: Develop to performantly play on the high school team, and beyond)
    • Players develop their own individual development plans.
Designed around the players who sign-up and register, these are custom groups that start when a minimum number of players in that group/level Signup (below), get assigned a Group, and then Register.
