Tennis . . . for the fun of it.

Suffield Country Club's exciting Junior Program offer lessons for

  • Beginners
  • Advance Beginners
  • Intermediate Players.
  • First Advanced  Players.
  • Team  Players.

The schedule includes

  • Twice-weekly matches with neighboring Country Clubs.
  • Clinics on our three Har-Tru courts Monday to Friday, at 12:15, 1:00 pm, 2:00 pm or 3:00 to 4:00 pm, depending on ability.

The groups are as follows:

Beginners: Rascals   5 -   6 years old Monday & Wednesday:  12:15 - 12:55
Advanced Beginners: Bearcats   7 -   8 years old Tues., Thur., & Friday:  12:15 - 12:55
Intermediates: Wildcats   8 - 12 years old Daily:  1:00 - 1:55
First Advanced: Minor League 11-  16 years old Daily:  2:00 - 2:55
Team: SCC Team 11-  16 years old Daily:  3:00 - 3:55

  • Due to the shortened times of the SCC Team Practice, one or two days during each week will be available for an extra hour of "Play with the Pro's" time. This time is an opportunity to play competitive matches with the Pro's to improve the skill of singles and doubles match play. Times will be offered when the program begins.
  • The Junior Program will be led for a fourth year by Tennis Pro Russ Bombard, who brings many years of teaching experience to the position, and Assistant Pros Dan Presser and Tim Judson, a former Jr. Program "student.".

    In addition to Junior Clinics, Russ also offers Private and Semi-Private Lessons on weekday mornings.  These can be a valuable complement to the instructions and group play offered during our afternoon clinics!  Sometimes a few lessons can make the difference in fixing some "trouble spots" with developing strokes.  See the signup board for rates and please inquire with Russ if you have any questions.

    The Juniors are taught in an encouraging, energetic program which places a high priority on personal goals and sportsmanship.  We provide them with a strong background in the fundamentals of the game, from proper footwork to ground strokes, while fostering their enjoyment of a sport that they can continue playing for their entire lives.

    Play begins Monday, June 20th and runs until Friday, July 29th.
