Tennis

6th Grade Tennis Program Starts October 23
O. Henry Mustang Tennis, in partnership with the Capital Area Tennis Association, is pleased to announce a new after-school program for 6th graders that may lead to competitive opportunities in 7th and 8th grade U.I.L. Tennis.

For four (4) weeks beginning October 23, we will offer the U.S. Tennis Association’s highly lauded QuickStart Tennis® program for 6th grade boys and girls. QuickStart Tennis® will meet for twelve (12) sessions at the O. Henry tennis courts from October 23 through November 15 every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 4:15pm until 5:30pm. Because of the progressive, incremental nature of the QuickStart Tennis® program, students who enroll are expected to attend all twelve sessions.

Capital Area Tennis Association will provide all tennis equipment including racquets. Enrolled students must wear their own appropriate court shoes and make their own transportation arrangements. Cost is $25 per student for the entire four weeks. Enrollment is limited to twelve (12) students maximum. If interested in securing a spot for your son or daughter, please e-mail Coach Devereaux at: ddeverea@austinisd.org by Thursday, October 18.
