THE COMPETITIVE EDGE COLLEGE PROGRAM

These groups are for junior tennis players competing in USTA state, sectional and national tournaments, and already highly ranked in Tennessee.

There will be a lot of time devoted to correct modern technique, entrance shots, patterns of play, and developing the correct mental focus to compete at a high level. Many of the drills and games will be played under pressure to simulate tournament conditions. Each day we will work on specifics needed to improve the group.

There will be an on court conditioning program each day, video analysis when necessary, plus ongoing evaluations for parents and players. Competitive data will be taken throughout the month and used to map out future areas of need for each individual player. Tournament competition and challenge matches are mandatory.

This group will move indoors in November. Indoor court time during the winter for this group is free on a space available basis for additional practice.
