The Junior Tennis Program will run for EIGHT weeks again
this summer on our four private courts at the Fisher Family
Tennis Center. We are proud to have Steve Queenan back as
our head tennis professional. Steve is a former collegiate
player and a current 4.5 USTA player. He has been a high school
coach for over 10 years and led Westborough High to the state
finals in 2000 and 2001. He is a certified USTA instructor
and has participated in their Advanced Coaches Clinics, most
recently in the “quick start” clinic for children
under age 10. As a former camper and tennis participant, Steve
has in-depth knowledge of the Colony Club tennis program.
In fact, he was the first ever Tiny Gregg Tournament winner!
The Junior Tennis program offers these programs for all ages
and skill levels (check the SBCC web site for practice schedules,
match schedules and fees. Daily guest fees are available):
• Team Tennis for ages 9 to 16 years, or younger,
at the Pro's discretion (for players who can serve from
the baseline and return serve). Includes intra-club practice
two days per week and weekly match play against other nearby
clubs. The team is split into three groups, the “A
Team” and the “B Team”, based on ability
at the Pro’s discretion, and the “Super A Team”
of high school aged players. Weekly matches are typically
played on Friday afternoons at 1pm.
• Junior Hopefuls for ages 6 to 9 years, or younger,
at the Pro’s discretion. Includes an introduction
to ground strokes, service and net play and instruction
of game rules and strategy for beginners in preparation
for Team Tennis participation.
• Pee Wee Hopefuls for ages 4 to 6, or younger, at
the Pro’s discretion. An age-appropriate introduction
to the game of tennis. Players in this toddler clinic learn
the fundamental motor skills of the game, leading up to
basic techniques.
• Special Events include the Pizza Party season opener,
scheduled for Monday, June 28th and the Tiny Gregg tennis
tournament, scheduled on August 10th and 12th.
• Private lessons are available by contacting Steve
Queenan directly (508-888-2827). Rates are $40/hour for
either private or semi-private lessons. As a reminder, Steve
is the only tennis pro authorized to use the Club’s
tennis courts for tennis lessons.
The fee for these programs is posted on the SBCC web site.
Weekly rates are in effect regardless of attendance, unless
previously arranged with the Parent Coordinator. Program registration
forms will be emailed to Colony Club members in the spring.
