Junior Team Tennis 2010

June 28th–August 29th, 2010


** Update ** - Click here for invitation to Tennis Hall of Fame field trip on July 6th.

 

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.
