What We Do

    Improve Tennis & Fitness

    Our tennis professionals work with children to learn and play by the rules and to create a lasting joy for the game. Physical and mental health are trained during on-court sessions using USTA recommended curricula.

    Our Programs
  • Child writing in a colorful book with illustrations of animals and objects, on a desk with a yellow highlighter in the background.

    Enhance Education

    Our educators teach children on a variety of topics ranging from nutrition to history, math, and English. Via one-on-one mentoring relationships, kids can access additional support specific to their individual needs.

    Educational Offerings

    Build Character and Community

    We help St. Louis youth build character by teaching the skills fundamental to succeeding in life. These include social skills, building a lifelong hunger for learning, and the ability to overcome failure.
