What We Do

We are a Non-Profit 501 (c) (3) community tennis and education program that provides private tennis coaching, high performance tennis training, tutoring, mentoring, educational skills development and college placement. We also provide both competition team, and individual tennis programs for juniors and adults.  We provide scholarships to juniors in need who meet our standards with training and educational support costs to help them reach their goals.  We also help our players through the college placement and recruiting process to make sure they choose the best possible schools for their goals.

Executive Director Antonio Burgos has coached hundreds of sectionally and nationally ranked players, including four National Champions.  His focus has always been to develop the whole individual. Burgos considers his greatest accomplishments have been the hundreds of student athletes who have gone on to college, successful careers and more importantly lives as compassionate individuals.  Our athletes have transferred the skills that made them successful tennis players into successful students, professionals and human beings. Some of the these skills we develop are:

• Discipline
• Responsibility
• Sportsmanship
• Mental Toughness
• Work Ethic
• Problem Solving
• Self Confidence
• Goal Setting
• Physical Fitness
• Concept of Team
• Compassion
