I emphasize the recognition Tiafoe’s been receiving to point out one thing: when Frances was four, he didn’t go online and select a tennis club and a clinic to train at, he couldn’t have. He showed an interest in tennis but it was his parents and coaches that helped him get started. Moreover, no one knew he would land in the semi-finals of the U.S. Open at 24. They enlisted him to have fun.
Your kid is in the same position — filled with potential and waiting for you to help him or her get started in a sports program that will teach life skills, bring good health and lasting friendships. The stardom is a bonus. And you don’t need to be in Florida, California, or Spain to think your kid will have a chance to get good at tennis. Connecticut has had a fair share of successful Division I college and professional players, most notably James Blake. Blake reached No. 4 in the world. He grew up in Fairfield, Connecticut and began playing when he was five.
Kings Highway Tennis Club has been working with JTCC for six years to develop the best kind of junior tennis pathway possible. Therefore, whatever your child’s current level, we have a program for them. Our goal is to make the best use of our skills and help children enjoy tennis while getting good at it.
