Winter Tennis Camp Coming up Jan 10-14

Happy Holidays to all! 

To kick off the new year, the Women's tennis team at Whitman is hosting an after school week long tennis camp.  This is a fund raiser that will be coached by Coach John and members of the Women's team.

The camp is run through the City of Walla Walla Parks and Rec department so contact them to sign up.  Each camper gets a t shirt and no tennis experience or having your own racket is required, but we'll also split out age and ability levels so that competitive tournament and high school players get technical, strategic and fitness work to prepare them for the upcoming season.

The quickstart (10 and under) sessions will be from 3:30-4:45 Mon-Fri
The full court sessions will follow from 5-7 Mon-Fri.

Again, sign up at Parks and Rec, but if you have questions, please contact me at heinj@whitman.edu or (509) 301-8502.

Here's to great tennis and lots of fun in 2011!
Coach John

More Drop in Tennis Scheduled! Donate to a good cause

The Women's tennis team at Whitman has adopted a family for the holidays this year and they asked me if we could run some drop in tennis and use the funds to help out with this endeavor.  Of course, I said, so we'll be on for drop in next week, Dec 6th, 7th and 8th from 3:30-4:15pm.

We'll be in the Bratton Tennis Center and will have enough space and coaches for all ages and abilities to come every day!  So bring a friend and play some tennis for a good cause.

There will be no cost for these sessions, but a $5 donation is suggested to help us help our family out.

Warm regards,
Coach John
