Players who want to dust off their racquets and jump back in the game — or people ready to learn the game of tennis — are invited to get into the swing of things with summertime clinics offered by the Bainbridge Community Tennis Association.
The BCTA will start its “New Player” and “Back to Tennis” clinics from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. Saturdays, June 22-July 27; and 6 to 7 p.m. Tuesday evenings, July 2-30.
The tennis club will also host doubles programs on Saturdays, Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Saturday Morning Social Doubles are 9:30 to 11 a.m. June 22 through Aug. 24 at the tennis courts at Bainbridge High School.
All levels are welcome. BCTA director and professional tennis instructor Ross Eaton will set up balanced and challenging play for all participants.
Thursday Intermediate Doubles are 7 to 8:30 p.m. at the BHS courts, and are open for players with doubles experience.
Six courts of men’s, women’s and mixed doubles are arranged, separating levels of play such that participants find challenge wherever they are placed.
Tuesday Night Advanced Doubles is 7 to 8:30 p.m. June 25 through Aug. 13 at the BHS courts.
The program is for players who have competed at an advanced level (4.0–5.0 men, 4.5-5.0 women).
