JUNIOR ACADEMY
For junior tennis players at Wilmington Country Club who have demonstrated a commitment to the sport and meet the WCC Jr. Tennis Pathway parameters, our Academy classes offer an exciting avenue to pursue more competitive opportunities. These classes are designed for those who aspire to take their game to the next level and are serious about developing their skills and strategic play. Academy players will be strongly encouraged to participate on our Junior League Teams, providing valuable match experience and fostering a sense of team spirit. Furthermore, we support and encourage our Academy players to compete in both District (DE) and Sectional (DE, NJ, PA) USTA tournaments, giving them the chance to test their abilities against other talented players in the region. Our comprehensive Academy program goes beyond simply hitting balls on the court. Classes will incorporate both on-court playing sessions, focusing on advanced techniques, tactical strategies, and match play scenarios, and off-court fitness training portions, designed to improve players' strength, agility, and endurance, all crucial elements for success in competitive tennis. We believe that a well- rounded approach to training is essential for maximizing a player's potential. As an added benefit, all players who register for the full session will receive a personalized End of Session Player Review, providing valuable feedback on their progress and identifying areas for continued development. Please note that class times are subject to change based on indoor court availability, so we encourage you to check the schedule regularly for any updates.
