 "My daughter, Krista, is enjoying the Home school Tennis. As a beginning student, she has benefited greatly. In two months time, she has went from knowing very little about the game to actually being able to play against other students.
    To have a quality professional like Coach Susan and J.R. instruct Home school students is a real blessing.  I have personally observed each class, and I can tell you that Susan is truly gifted for dealing with children in all skill levels.
    I believe as Home school parents, we have a special obligation to provide a solid foundation for our children in all areas of life, including physical activity to encourage a lifestyle of healthy living.  Not only is this a great physical education class for our students, its also teaches lifetime skills of teamwork, coordination, and mental discipline!"
~R. Schrock (Parent)
Our mission is to make a positive difference by using the sport of tennis.  

My goal as a coach is to inspire and enlighten students of the joys and benefits of this sport and assist in creating healthy practices to last a lifetime.

Good sportsmanship and ethics are learned and increases a child's ability to thrive in a competitive and noncompetitive situation.  

The values of good sportsmanship, cooperation, teamwork and respect for each other are also developed.

Our tennis program is designed for the young who are looking to develop their tennis fundamentals and have FUN while doing it!

We incorporate warm up activities, stroke techniques, playing strategies and drills to help develop, improve and grow a passion for the game.

Tennis is not just a sport...But also a way of life to be enjoyed forever.
