GREENVILLE YOUTH TEAM TENNIS PROGRAM INVITES KIDS TO JOIN THE FUN AND PLAY ON A TEAM

St. Mary's School students taking part in an assembly done for area elementary schools, including Ansonia, Greenville City, St Mary's and DeColores Montessori.

This summer kids will again have a blast playing Midwest Youth Team Tennis in Greenville. 10 and Under Tennis, using the QuickStart Tennis play format, features kid-sized equipment, court dimensions, and scoring. Kids develop tennis skills right away, and have a ball playing and competing in a fun, team environment.

The 8 week Greenville “Quickstart” program for children 10 and under will be held on Sunday evenings, starting June 12 through August 7. New this year, an 8 week “Futures” program for junior high students will be held on Tuesday nights, June 14 - August 2 from 7-8 pm ; any student registered in the 10 and under program can attend on Tuesday nights at no additional cost. The deadline to register for both programs is May 20th.

This Midwest Youth Team Tennis program is open to girls and boys who will be entering 1st through 6th grade in the fall of 2011. While the program is geared to beginners, all are welcome to participate. For students who did not participate in the 2010 program, the participant package includes the following: new tennis racquet (21 or 23 inch for 8-and-Under, 25 inch for 10-and-Under), Ace’s Kids Club fun pack, team t-shirt, and an age appropriate tennis ball. For players returning to the program who have not outgrown last year’s racquet, the option of a racquet bag will be offered.
