Excitement on the Courts: Stansbury High School Hosts Free Youth Tennis Clinic

Stansbury, the charming little city that loves sports, recently buzzed with energy as it welcomed a free youth tennis clinic on June 11. This highly anticipated event not only opened its doors to the community but also offered a golden opportunity for children of all ages to hit the courts and learn a thing or two about tennis.

Who Could Join?

The clinic was designed for a wide range of children, including those from kindergarten through sixth grade, as well as middle and high school students. Imagine the sheer joy on kids’ faces as they grabbed their rackets and donned their tennis shoes, ready to learn from some amazing coaching!

New Leadership on the Court

This year, the clinic was led by none other than Audrey Curtiss. Audrey, known for her fair share of dedication to tennis, is a former player who honed her skills at Grantsville High School. With her experience conducting private lessons, she was enthusiastic about introducing the younger generation to the sport she loves.

More Than Just Tennis Skills

While the main aim was to teach the fundamentals of tennis, such as swing techniques and proper form, the clinic also focused on building the children’s confidence and igniting a lifelong passion for tennis. Whether kids were picking up a racket for the first time or refining their skills, there was plenty of room for fun and exercise.

Splitting Up for Success

To make sure every child got the attention they needed, participants were split into two groups. One group catered to the younger kids in grades K-6, while the other welcomed those in middle and high school. Each group participated in fun, tennis-related games, including a popular activity called racket swap, keeping everyone active and engaged.

Community Gratitude

As parents watched their little ones experience the joy of the sport, many expressed appreciation for the clinic’s free nature and community focus. Families took this chance to bond, participating in a thrilling community activity that brought smiles all around. Parents were particularly pleased with the opportunity for their children to get physically involved and connect with their peers in a positive environment.

More Opportunities to Play

In addition to the tennis clinic, the Junior Stallions Tennis Camp kicked off the same week and is running until June 19, with a second week scheduled from June 23-26. This camp promises to further enhance the kids’ skills and provide additional chances to engage with tennis.

A Dedication to Tennis

Having played tennis for 13 years, Audrey is not just a coach; she’s a passionate advocate for the sport in the community. By fostering an encouraging environment, she aims to ensure that tennis is not just a game but a way to build friendships, confidence, and a sense of belonging.
