LATEST NEWS: UPDATED on Ocotber 27th, 2009:
Our indoor season is now in full force. We want to remind you of our indoor policies: You can book a court up to a week in advance and require 24 hour cancellation for a court or lesson in order not to be charged. We are always trying to improve our service to the club, so please do not hesitate to send an email to advantagetennis@msn.com with any concerns and comments. We look forward to seeing you on the courts.
For our junior players: We will not hold a spot for a player at a future date. We operate on a first come- first serve basis. We can put you on a list and at the future date, if space is available then you can get a spot in that class. If you decide to take time off, your spot will not be saved as the next person on the wating list will take that spot.
Please read our Junior policy and procedures to get a full understanding.
MORE TENNIS LESSON ARE BETTER? We have often heard that more lessons are better. This comes from well intended parents, but that will not help much if that is all the player does. You can save money and become a better tennis player if you have a "balanced schedule:
Lessons: Groups and Privates .......................................................................... 25%
Practice Play: Sets, ball machine, serves , directed points .................................30%
Physical: cardio, Strength, speed, nutrition, sleep .............................................25%
Tournaments: Competition ............................................................................... 20%
Most of our players only participate in tennis lessons. As a result their achivements are limited and do not reach their full potential - Only reach 25% of their potential!!
We encourage you to spend the time to practice on and off the court in order to get ready for competition in addition to your lessons. Lessons are necessary in order to get good technique, application and understanding.
ATTENTION - We are a private club and in order to reserve a court or join our programs you must be a member of Ivory Ridge Tennis Club. We would love to have everyone join our club. We do allow non members for 2 specific programs: Tennis USA (adult beginners) and the Pee Wee's for beginners (age 4-7). We have a variety of options to become a member. For more information please call 801-331-6000 and ask for Melissa.
See you on the courts!!
