Great Practice! Possible Inclement Weather Plans

Hey Parents!
We had a great practice today! I just wanted to touch base with you to let you know of plans if inclement weather arises. Thursday is shaping up to be a beautiful day, but there is a slight chance of rain. If in the event that rain or wind permits us from playing at the Bush Tennis Center, I will always update here first. I will also email and text the contact information provided on the sign up sheet. I just wanted to let you know in case this ever occurs, but hopefully we will continue to have gorgeous weather like today! Thank you parents for your help and support and see you Thursday!

Thursday Practice

Hello Parents and Players!
We're looking forward to a great program this spring! We have 22 awesome players signed up and the addition of two knowledgeable and skilled coaches. The Bush Tennis Center will be hosting the District 3-6A Tournament on April 9th-10th for the high schools in the surrounding areas. This will cause all the courts to be occupied on Thursday, so we will not have practice on the 9th. This actually probably works in our favor since the forecast this week calls for a windy day on Thursday. We will make up this day with a dual or clinic in the near future. Looking forward to see you all on Tuesday! We will meet at the front of the Bush Tennis Center Facility at 4:00 p.m. on the 7th. We will walk to our designated courts and begin warm-up routines and practice. We will finish and be at the front of the facility promptly at 5:30 p.m. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't ever hesitate to contact me. Also, as a reminder if your child ever can not attend practice, please let me know beforehand.

A New Season is Upon Us!

Hello Parents and Players! Welcome to 2015 Tennis Season! We are so excited to get started this year. We have three new coaches joining our program: 4th Grade Teacher: Richard Fournier, Librarian: Camille Sammons, and Middle School Religion Teacher: Kyla Hendricks. We are grateful to have their expertise guide us this season!

I hope by now you have gotten the chance to review the tennis letter, player guidelines, player contract, and the athletic handbook contract (found here). A copy of these forms have been posted in the "Parents" section in case you need any extra copies. Please return the necessary forms and tennis fee to the office no later than April 1st. We must have a solid count for the t-shirt order and to know how many courts to reserve.

Please check is site regularly for information on practices and matches. If for any reason their is a cancellation of practices or matches due to weather, this will be the first place updated. We can not wait to get started on teaching your child the many joys and benefits of tennis! If you ever have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. Thank you so much for you interest in the program. I look forward to our season!
