Get ready for Summer Tennis with the Keizer Tennis Association (KTA)!
We are gearing up for our summer program for 6-16 year olds and an expanded adult tennis program in Keizer. You can register by downloading our "Slammin' Summer Program" flyer (English version or Spanish version). We offer scholarships for kids - please contact the KTA for more information about qualifying. Until further notice, all lessons will be held on the courts at River Road Park. McNary High School's courts and North Salem High School's courts may also be used if necessary. Please click here to view maps for court locations and check back here for updates on where lessons will be held!
Once again we are offering QuickStart tennis for 6-10 year olds. If you're intereted in becoming a QuickStart instructor or are a parent who wants to actively participate in your child's QuickStart experience, you might want to go to the USTA's Youth Tennis site and read all about this exciting teaching method - it's way cool!
The KTA is a member of the National Junior Tennis and Learning (NJTL) network. The NJTL provides low-cost team tennis opportunities for beginners to advanced players. The NJTL offers kids opportunities to work on teamwork, sportsmanship, self discipline and self esteem.

Again This Year - Match Play for ages 6-14!
KTA will be offering a match play day for kids age 6 to 14 (see the program flyer for specific day/time - a link to the flyer is in the first paragraph above). This will give younger players a chance to play singles and doubles matches with supervision. They will learn scoring etiquette, sportsmanship and we'll give them tips on strategy. Parents are also encouraged to attend.
Cardio Tennis
A popular program we're offering again this year is Cardio Tennis. Check out this video for a look at what it's all about.
If you are interested in our summer programming, please contact the KTA and send us your name, address, phone, and email and we will email or mail to you a summer program flyer. You can also download a flyer summarizing our summer program (English version or Spanish version). |
Just think - with enough lessons and ambition, your child could become a professional player, like the US's own Bryant Brothers, who some say are the greatest doubles team in the world. Check out this feature story from 60 Minutes.
