Clinic/Pizza Party

Thanks Players and Parents for a great tennis program this year! I look forward to seeing you at the Sports Banquet on Wednesday! Luis Valdez, the director of Bush Tennis Center has invited our players to join in a Tennis Clinic on Thursday, May 16th from 6:30 - 8:30 at the Tennis Center. The tennis clinic is from 6:30 - 8:00 and a Pizza Party will follow from 8:00 - 8:30. The only cost is $5 for Pizza. If you are interested in going, I MUST know by Monday so that I can let give Luis a headcount so he can plan for the number of coaches. Thanks everyone!

Last two practices this week...

Hello Players!
Our last two practices will take place this week. We will meet today, May 6th and Thursday, May 8th. I realize these are also the same dates as the Orchestra and Band Concerts. This week's practices will not be mandatory as we just finished our last tennis match for the season, so if any players need to miss or leave early to prepare for the concerts, feel free to do so. Other than that, I can't wait to see you all at practice! Have a great week Saints!

Great Job Saints!

I haven't gotten the chance to review scores yet, but our players had a great match with Big Lake on Thursday. For many of our players, this was their first experience with match play, and they did a great job! All students got to play a minimum of 3 matches, and played both singles and doubles. Thank you players for your hard work, and thank you parents for coming out and supporting. I have included a few pictures from the match on Thursday. They can be found in the Photos Section. Feel free to share any pictures that you took, and please send them to the school office by Wednesday, May 7th so that they may be included on the Sports Banquet video. See you tomorrow at practice Saints!

Match Today!

Our second match of the season will include all players in the Middle School Tennis Program. Please meet at the courts at our normal practice time (4:00 p.m.) wearing your St. Ann's Tennis Shirt is you have one. We will match up against surrounding area players. Our goal is to try and get you as much match play as possible. The event should wrap up around 6:30 p.m., however if you need to leave sooner, just let me know so that we do not start you on a match that might conflict. Look forward to seeing you all there! Please remember to bring a fresh can of tennis balls if you are able to. Go Saints!

Way to Go Saints!

Our 7th and 8th Grade Players had a great match against Alamo Junior High yesterday at the Bush Tennis Center! Players got to participate in singles and doubles matches and did a wonderful job! After recording all the match results, the Saints came out with 12 victories and 10 losses. Way to Go Saints! Be sure the check the new "Photos" Tab for a few pictures from yesterday's play. Parents, if you took any pictures, please feel free to send them to the school office by Wednesday, May 7th for the Sports Banquet Video.
