Academy

The goal of Academy is to optimize tournament performance and to gain a tennis scholarship to a college of choice. Players need to be at least 13 years old with a minimum UTR of seven (7).
Candidates must contact Coach Harshana, Director of the Academy.

Tournament Training I (TT1)

The goal of TTI is to develop and train high performance players who regularly participate in USTA tournaments. Clinics maintain small player-to-coach ratios and utilize drills that emphasize aggressive, progressive repetition. Coaches continually push for more effort, output and achievement. Focus is on intense training. Fitness emphasis is on endurance, speed, power, strength, and flexibility. One day a week is dedicated for match play and competitive games.

Tournament Training I is played with 26”– 27” racquets on 78’ courts.

Training Hours:
Monday/Wednesday 5:00 to 7:00 PM
Tuesday/Thursday 5:00 to 7:00 PM

Ratio: 4 students, 1 coach, 1 court
Maximum Enrollment: 32 students

Tournament Training II (TT2)

The goal of TT2 is to build confident and independent players making the transition from green to yellow ball, both of which are used in practice. Students are expected to know how to execute appropriate strokes consistently, and to understand when and why they are being used. Players at this level should have most of their fundamentals in place, thus more time is dedicated to tennis-specific fitness and match play. We recommend TT2 players compete in at least 10 tournaments annually, and play high school tennis if possible.

TT2 is played with 25”– 27” racquets on 78’ courts.

Training Hours:
Monday/Wednesday/Friday   4:00 to 5:30 PM (Green ball)
Monday/Wednesday   4:00 to 5:30 PM & Sunday   5:00 to 7:00 PM (Yellow ball)

Ratio: 5 students, 1 coach, 1 court
Maximum Enrollment: 22 students

Tournament Training III (TT3) / Green Tennis

The goal of TT3/Green Tennis is to play on a full-size court and focus on court positioning, shot selection, and strategy while continuing to polish some of the technical elements. Players at this level should feel comfortable moving and hitting most shots on a 60’ court, so our emphasis shifts from technical to tactical and physical components.

Green tennis is the last developmental stage before players transition to standard yellow balls and full-length racquets. However, coaches might still use orange balls and the 60’ court to isolate specific aspects of the players’ game.

TT3 / Green Tennis is played with 25” – 27” racquets on 60’ – 78’ courts.

Training Hours:
Tuesday/Thursday  4:00PM to 5:30PM

Ratio: 6 students, 1 coach, 1 court
Maximum Enrollment: 20 students

Orange Tennis

The goal of Orange Tennis is to further develop students who have progressed from Red Tennis, and can cover and demonstrate good control of the ball on the 36’court. Agility, balance, coordination and other basic movement skills are still emphasized. Players learn most of their technical and physical fundamentals at this level. As they grow, mature, and develop, players are introduced to progressively more complex athletic skills.
The objective is that players are able to execute all shots with control (height, length, width, and spin) from all parts of the court before they advance to a full-size tennis court. Practice structure is 10% introduction, 30% general skill building, 30% tennis specific skill building, and 30% games.

Orange Tennis is played with 23” – 25”racquets on 60’ courts.

Clinic Hours:
Tuesday/Thursday   4:00PM to 5:30PM
Saturday   9:00AM to 10:30AM

Ratio: 6 students, 1 coach, 1 court
Maximum Enrollment: T/TH 24 students, SAT: 12 students

Sponge / Red Tennis

The goal of Sponge / Red Tennis is to introduce students 5-10 years the fundamentals of tennis. It focuses on basic motor skills and athletic capabilities such as agility, balance, and coordination, which are essential to tennis and transferable to other sports as well. Basic technical fundamentals such as grips, swing, and stance are introduced while students also learn the rules of the game. Practice structure is 10% introduction, 30% general skill building, 30% tennis specific skill building, and 30% games.

Sponge & Red Tennis is played with 17” – 23” racquets on 36’ courts.

Clinic Hours:
Monday/Wednesday 4:00PM to 5:30PM
Saturday 9:00AM to 10:30AM

Ratio: 6 students, 1 coach, 1 court
Maximum Enrollment: 18 Students

Athletic shoes are required for children and adults on court. Racquets are provided. Sessions require at least 4 registered participants.
