The TCTA Junior Development Committee under the leadership of Jim Trapp and Stephanie Hickey has organized junior boys and girls tournament teams patterned after the Boardman Tennis Center junior tournament team format.  All the top juniors in the three county area were invited to try out for spots on the tournament team.  For the boys, there were two tryouts at Packard Park, and the competition was very high level.  The final decision as to who made the team was especially difficult considering that the last eight participants beat people in front of them during the tryouts. The TCTA Tournament Teams are as follows, with standings as of 12/03/2009:

#1 Ben Brocker

 

    #1  Victoria Ferry

November 5 update

Participants are responsible for getting substitutes and collecting the money if you cannot make a Thursday night. The fee you should collect is $15.00 and contact Jim Trapp at 330-856-7589 to inform him of the person that will be substituting so he can contact the instructors.

The instructors will be told not to give specific instruction about a stroke unless asked or requested. We understand that most of you participants have tennis pros and we do not want to give conflicting instruction that might confuse the team member.

There will be challenge matches every two weeks starting the week of October 22-29, 2009. The first two weeks (October 22-November 5, 2009) the even numbers will be challenging the odd numbers. (Ex. 4 vs. 3, or 8 vs. 7) The following weeks November 5-19, 2009 the odd numbers will challenge the even numbers. (Ex. 5 vs. 4, or 9 vs. 8) You are responsible to report your scores to Jim Trapp at 330-856-7589. You do not have to challenge if you do not want to but vacations, tournaments, sickness cannot be used as an excuse for not challenging or allowing a challenge. One of the major objectives of this group is to get you to play other individuals in pressure situations.

There will be matches set up with other tournament teams and dates will be announced. Also every participant is encouraged to play USTA sanctioned tournaments especially Boardman Tennis Center tournaments.
