High School Tennis League 

(sponsored by SCTA)

Summer is right around the corner and we are trying to find out if you are interested in playing tennis this summer in a High School League.  After a small break from the game we are planning a fun get together with all of the players you played against during this past High School season.  Our program will include singles, doubles and mixed and will be played on a variety of surfaces and facilities through out Brevard County.  We have secured 7 different sites for play and we will let you know by e-mail where, when and what time to show each week.  We will have a representative there to help with the organization and get your started.  No one has tried to get a little tennis going for the High School age group for years and it is about time something is done for you.  The SCTA (Space Coast Tennis Association) and is a non-profit corporation with a mission statement “to encourage and improve junior tennis in South Brevard.”  If you are interested we will provide this program for you and your teammates this summer.  We are most noted for the Junior Team Tennis Program which most of you have either been a participant or have heard of this program.  Some of the best high school players will be participating this summer so there will be plenty of tough matches but this is not what we are trying to do.  We want this league to be competitive, but mainly a get together for some fun tennis with your peers.  This league is for high school players only.  If you are interested, send an e-mail with the answers to the questions below:
