Free Beginner Tennis Clinics – Informational Meeting

This is a registration and organizational meeting for free tennis clinics for children ages 6-11 and their parents. The tennis clinics will expose children and their parents to the basic tennis strokes, scorekeeping and informal competition in a lively, low-key atmosphere. Tennis can be a tool that supports life-long healthy living, with many players enjoying the sport until well into their eighties.
The clinics are offered by Asheboro Cultural & Recreation Services and the Randolph Community Tennis Association. For more information, please call the W.W. Thomas Tennis Center at 629-1772.
