The parent Panther Tennis Committee [PTC], has carefully selected Advantage Tennis Training Center, and their established team of experienced coaches, to run the after school Panther Tennis Team [PTT] program.
The new Panther Tennis coaches are a unified team of Head Coaches, Assistant Coaches, and a tennis specific speed, strength and agility Physical Trainer, equipped with skills and experience for all ages: from beginner, to recreational, to competitive players.
Training for Term 2 will commence November 19th [and finish February 9th] with registration set to open November 7th. Please see the Panther Tennis webpage for scheduling, fees and registration on November 7th: https://inside.isb.ac.th/cao/2011/08/16/panther-tennis-academy
On November 13th, from early dismissal at 1:15 until 3:15, players and parents are given the opportunity to meet & receive a training session from the new coaches, as well as meet parent Panther Tennis Committee members.
Make-ups for Term 1 tennis lessons will run from November 5th– 9th, as confirmed by Justin Wah. For queries, please contact the Community Activities Office.
We would like to give special thanks to former coaches, and extend a warm welcome to the future Panther Tennis program, as this change brings new opportunity for growth and development of daily programs, competitions, specialized weekend clinics, and holiday camps for students of all ages and levels of play.
