🎾 ☀️ SUMMER VIBES 😎 🎾

Parents and junior players... Looking for a different kind of summer tennis experience? Tired of the same drills over and over, spending all day at a facility and not actually getting any better at the game you love so much? At YTC, we have spent the last three summers going around the county and the country to find the best tennis experiences for junior players. And what do they all have in common? Well-timed, extremely focused drills with weekly challenges that compound throughout the length of the program and fun coaches who bring the best out of the kid’s potential! Our Focused Intensity Training (F.I.T.) experience is centered around the 4-core principles of tennis that we are constantly teaching throughout our full year DAT program: Starting the point Settling into the rhythm of the rally Setting up an opportunity to exploit Finishing off the point When these principles are the bedrock of your programming, it not only sets you up for tennis, it sets you up for life’s challenges. Thinking about it yet? Here are the certified experienced coaches teaching F.I.T. and the rest of YTC's summer programs:

Inclement Weather Reminder

So far we've been lucky this winter, but a reminder in the event of inclement weather, YTC will monitor the forecast and once a decision is made, we will email all and post any closings or delayed openings on our website, social media and update our main phone greeting. The safety of our staff and customers is always our first priority. Please keep in mind, we do not follow school closings. Kindly wear boots and change into your tennis sneakers. DRIVE SAFE!

Goodbye is never easy...

As you may have heard from our seasonal renewal letter, it saddens us to write that our beloved Coaches Santos and Diallo will not be returning next season. After 40+ years in the tennis industry, Coach Santos is hanging up his racquet, retiring and heading back to his homeland of the Dominican Republic. Coach Diallo will also be heading back to his home in Mali to tend to pressing family matters. We thank them both for being integral parts of the YTC family and its success over the years. We wish them nothing but the best with continued good health, happiness and fortune! A celebration is planned at YTC on Saturday evening, April 29th that will include refreshments and fun games on court! Stay tuned for more details.
