SUMMER SCHOOL TENNIS: We offer two morning classes during the 6 weeks of summer school.  Classes are led by New Trier coaches. Age ranges from those finishing 8th grade to those finishing sophomore year.  Many students have been on a NT tennis team or plan to try out.  There is no preferencial treatment during tryouts for those who have taken a class.  For those who plan to play multiple tournaments over the summer, summer school tennis might not be your best plan.
