Who attends a Recreational Coach Workshop?
These workshops are an excellent primer for new coaches as well as a valuable refresher course for those with teaching experience but who seek more current methods and effective tools. Past attendees include:
• Parents seeking the basics in coaching and organizing team tennis
• Park and Recreation instructors, high school, and seasonal coaches
• Coaches teaching kids and adults who are new to the game
• Current players seeking part-time teaching jobs
Upon completion of the six-hour workshop, attendees will:

Also, the USTA does not certify teaching professionals. If you are interested in becoming a certified teaching pro, please contact the PTR or USPTA.)

• Receive access to the latest in transition ball technology and additional coaching resources
