Sure, we have an established instructional program in which our young players, ages 8 to 18, gain skills with all of the tennis strokes and key fundamentals, including movement, court positioning, and strategy. But perhaps more important, we focus our young players on how to be good sportsmen and sportswomen, competing with spirit and class, and holding attitude and conduct above the quest for simply winning. Tennis match play, as well as practice, is used as a tool to teach character traits that will serve our young players well in all aspects of their future lives.

The components of our program include:

  • After-school & Summer Tennis Instruction

    • Puglio Park, Bridgeport

    • Glenwood Park, Bridgeport

  • USTA Junior Teams and League Play (18s, 12s, 10s)

    • Weekly team practices, indoors and outdoors

    • USTA League match play opportunities

  • Training & Preparation for High School Tennis Team

    • Central High School, Bridgeport
