Volunteer As a Recreational Tennis Coach | top

You don’t have to be a superior tennis player to become a volunteer Recreational Tennis Coach. You just have to love the game and want to share it with other people. If you are a Big who already plays tennis and would like to become a Recreational Tennis Coach, or if you have a friend who plays tennis and might like to volunteer for this new program and also learn more about Big Brothers Big Sisters, we hope you'll participate.

Recreational Tennis Coaches may assist tennis pros during lessons, or they may make themselves available to feed balls and run fun games and drills for Bigs and Littles outside of regularly scheduled “Your Turn for Tennis” program lessons, either at a participating city tennis facility or a public tennis court around the valley.

To learn more about volunteering as a Recreational Tennis Coach, attend the next training session Saturday, September 29, 2007 from 9:00 - 11:00 a.m. at Paseo Racquet Club in Glendale . Please let us know you'll be joining us by emailing tennis@bbbsaz.org or by calling Tina Stavros (602) 393-4123.

Training Sessions

On Saturday, January 20, 2007 a new group of recreational coaches had tons of fun during the first training session held inside Kiwanis Tennis Center while the cold rain poured down outside. Bill Lucero from the USTA Southwest Region conducted the training. We look forward to more recreational coaches joining us in the future. We had another great time at our next training session held Saturday, February 24, 2007 from 9:00 - 11:00 a.m.
