Girls' Tennis
Head Coach: Mr. Bill Allee
Length of Season: 7 weeks (September & October)
Tryouts: Girls' tennis is open to all 7th and 8th grade girls. Although tennis experience is not required, previous lessons would be helpful. According to Coach Blomquist, "Tennis is a great game and a sport that can be enjoyed throughout life. Any girl interested in playing tennis is encouraged to go out for the team."
Matches: All meets are scheduled to begin at 3:45 p.m. Players are responsible for their own transportation to and from away meets.
