Juniors must be Central Tennis Club members to participate in any program.

Returning junior member registration opens on February 1 of each year, while new junior member registration opens on February 16 of each year.

Our Junior Director will let you know how to become a member if you are not one yet.

The Junior Program at Central Tennis Club is one big PARTY!

Central Tennis Club offers Spring, Summer, and Fall clinics. Our most popular is our Spring clinic and we often have a waitlist. To avoid being disappointed, sign your junior up early.

Have a blast at the Junior Opening Day, the Parent & Child Tournament, and the Junior Club Championships! All events include games, round robins, refreshments/pizza, and prizes at no extra cost! All levels welcome. Pre-registration is preferred to purchase food and prizes.

Team tennis is a lot of fun and competitive. Come to the tryouts in April! Intercounty Tennis Association (ICTA) matches begin in May. The team plays away alternating Saturdays, 9 am to 1 pm.

Your participation makes the Junior Program fun. Come down and participate in some or all our activities. It’s a great way to have fun and meet new friends.

Note: There will be no Central Junior Team (Intercounty/ICTA) for the 2025 season due to this year's later club opening date.

Club members: Are there any other activities you would like to see, or programs you would like us to offer? Questions?

Junior Clinics

Junior Clinics are for Central Tennis Club members only.

All clinics are group lessons with focus on skills development. Lessons have a maximum of 8 juniors per clinic (a waiting list will be kept), there are 3 sessions per season (Spring, Summer, and Fall clinics), and each junior is allowed to register in one clinic only per session. Registration is on a first-come, first-served basis and payment by credit card is required at time of registration. If a particular clinic registration is full parents can still register to be on the Waitlist. "Beginner" implies little or no previous tennis lessons/experience, "Intermediate" implies at least 2 years of lessons/experience, "Advanced" implies more than 3 years of tennis lessons/experience. All lessons taught by Club Pro, Stan Palmateer.

Keep in mind, if you are not in a clinic, Court 1 is available for all juniors to play games.

Note: No make-up days for rainy days and refunds are subject to bank transaction fee penalty. Classes or students may be reassigned to accommodate the skill level of the junior.
