INDIANAPOLIS HEALTHPLEX

Over the past winter under the direction of the Healthplex’s new youth Tennis Coordinator Shelly Wild, there has been an increase of young players. Shelly has been able to build her clinics and lessons for youth from 1-3 participants to 810. The program now also organizes and hosts 12-15 non-sanctioned youth & junior tournaments a year. These tournaments are important to help prepare junior players for their middle school and high school seasons as well sanctioned USTA and/or UTR tournaments. Not only do the kids learn the sport of tennis but also skills that can be used every day. Learning teamwork and life skills is important for our youth.
