“One thing that I loved about the First Serve Tennis clinics was the instructing, particularly how we were able to set specific goals for ourselves and then work with the instructors to meet them. Ultimately I think that working on the small areas of my tennis game helped me to become a better tennis player.” -Maddy (14)

Benefits Of Our High Performance Program

Smaller Group Atmosphere and Individualized Instruction

At large tennis academies, players often complain that there are too many players and not enough coaches. At these academies, coaches tend to have a hard time engaging their players and providing individualized attention during clinics. At First Serve Tennis, we guarantee a 5:1 player to coach ratio (at most) and have a maximum of 4 players per court. We focus on giving personal attention to each student to ensure that every player receives training that helps them achieve their specific goals, needs, and interests.

Goal Oriented

At our clinics, we discuss short and long-term goals with all our players and work on ways to reach them. We help our players actively look for ways they can improve, no matter how big or small their aspirations may be. We found that other programs tend to be less focused on individual goals during clinics which leads to players and coaches “going through the motions.”

Local UTR Integration

Although UTR does not factor into any of our clinics, we provide weekly matchplay opportunities for our players at local locations. Additionally, we give players the option to participate in matchplay events directly after our clinics on certain days. Players can sign up for as many or as few UTR matches as they’d like, with a goal of improving their matchplay skills while raising their verified UTR. We also hold frequent UTR tournaments for a wide ranges of levels at locations throughout Northern New Jersey. For more information on our UTR events, click here.

We provide members of our high performance program access to exclusive discounts on racquets, strings, apparel, and accessories that they won’t be able to find anywhere else. Contact one of our coaches for more details.
