MIDDLE SCHOOL PATHWAY SERIES
A series designed specifically for middle school aged players who are new to tennis.
GRETA’s Pathway to Match Play offers a year-long series of programming designed to take beginners – even those who have never picked up a racquet before — and have them playing matches by the end of the year. This is a great program for middle schoolers and rising 9th-graders who want to develop the skills needed to play in USTA rec leagues (like Junior Team Tennis) or try out for their High School tennis team.
For information on future program dates contract Chris Tucker, Junior Programs Coordinator at chris@gretanc.com.
JUNIOR TEAM TENNIS
USTA Junior Team Tennis brings kids together in co-ed teams to play singles and doubles against other co-ed teams. It promotes social skills and important values, it creates a spirit of cooperation, unity, sportsmanship as well as individual self-growth. It’s a fun environment for kids to play on a team, work together in which they learn that succeeding is really more about how they play the game – win or lose. USTA Junior Team Tennis fueled by GRETA is for 10u, 12u, 14u and 18u leveled players.

GRETA Community Member Testimonials
GRETA has allowed our jr's to get more matches and play time.
"GRETA is all about helping the game of tennis grow in our area. A friend moved here last spring from Atlanta and I reached out to the office for assistance in getting this relocated player involved in a tri-level team. BAM! Registered and on a team in a matter of days."
D. MICHAELS
"After playing recreational tennis 90 minutes a week for a year with my friends, I knew that I wanted to devote more of my time learning this sport I love but I wasn't sure where to start. After getting a recommendation from a member of GRETA, I signed up for the Try Tennis program. Try Tennis introduced me to local tennis pros who helped me start learning proper technique and how to participate in USTA leagues. Thanks to GRETA I am now fully involved in our local tennis community through volunteering opportunities, getting coached by Guilford County tennis pros, and playing weekly tennis with many new friends that I meet playing in Piedmont league matches."
