JUNIORS

THE BIG PICTURE.

We look toward the long term development of our junior players.

our Younger players will spend the majority of their training hours mastering the fundamentals of modern technique and footwork, developing complete skill sets that will serve them well in match play. Whether players have immediate success at the 10 or 12 & under age divisions is not our program’s primary concern. Good results can certainly come early, and often do with our players. The overall aim of our program though is over time to develop junior players who have no technical limitations and possess a deep understanding of all that match play entails.

CURRICULUM.

Our program’s emphasis is on building a strong foundation for advanced all-court play. We aim toward the mastery of essential balance, movement and footwork fundamentals coupled with the most effective biomechanically sound hitting technique from all areas of the court. Fitness, tactics, strategy, and the mental game are also essential program components that are addressed in organized fashion.

EXPECTATIONS.

Enrolled players possess a high degree of self-motivation. Competition is also an integral component of our training. As such, we encourage and guide players to compete in USTA, ITF, UTR tournaments and events.

We offer players a more serious brand of fulfillment, one rooted in personal growth bound to a commitment to the development of advanced level skill sets.

ADULTS

WE TAKE YOUR GOALS SERIOUSLY.

The training strategy for adult players can be markedly different from the needs of aspiring juniors. Assessment, analysis, and realistic solutions are critical to maximizing the potential of adult tennis players. At R. A. we have the experience to map out optimal developmental strategies for adults based on their current personal technical and fitness levels, relative match experience, and the available time and resources that a given player has to devote to training.

FUN IS ENCOURAGED.

We realize that busy adults are often looking to kill a few birds with one stone, i.e. to improve their tennis, get in a workout, relieve some urban stress, socialize a bit, and of course, have fun. We are poised to accommodate players on all of those fronts.
