Sign up for an ADP Player Package!

Dear Junior and Parents,

This fall we will be offering two new options to our Advanced Player Development (APD) juniors (includes Tournament, Excellence and Big Dogs) that will allow you to raise the level of your game.

1. APD Player Package. In order to significantly raise your level, it is necessary to develop a relationship with one of our pros and commit to playing more tennis. With this package you will be asked to commit to twice/week group lessons and a regularly scheduled private lesson with your pro. In turn we will give you a 10% discount on the private lesson. You will work with one pro that has been through college tennis and still competes, who will help develop your game, choose tournaments and follow your progress. Parents will be involved as well since they are a key component for success. You might have heard Roger Federer in his French Open acceptance speech thanking his parents and stressing that none of this would have happened without their support!
2. Traveling Team Tennis. This will involve groups of players from all APD groups that will travel to Minneapolis (or teams will come here) for match play experience. Matches will be scheduled to work around tournaments and lessons at the club. This will be more on a monthly basis or 4-5 times during the indoor season.

Please feel free to contact a pro if you are interested in participating in one or both of these programs (or have questions). We will contact parents for group meetings on the team tennis closer to fall and pros will meet individually with the player and parents about the APD Player Package. These two new programs are additional options we feel would benefit juniors that are looking for extra guidance from experienced pros. We look forward to seeing you this fall in whatever capacity your schedule permits.

Sincerely,

Tim Butorac

RTC Junior Program

Our junior program is broken down into two parts: The instructional and advanced player development.

The instructional part has four levels: Beginner, Advanced Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced. Each level emphasizes sound fundamental and skills giving the student a good base on which to grow their game.

The advanced player development part also has four levels: Tournament Group 2, Tournament Group 1, Excellence and Big Dog. These levels try to incorporate the skills the players have learned into their match play. We try to help the players with tactics and strategies that will enable them to move up the ladder.

We’re very proud of our programs and the number of good juniors that have come through our program. We boast that we have age group, high school, collegiate and even nationally ranked players that have been nurtured by our program.

All of our pros continue to compete at a very high level themselves and feel they can relate to junior players of all levels. It has made for a winning combination!

We are the Rochester Tennis Connection

It's a new name for familar faces! The "Rochester Tennis Connection" or "RTC" refers to the trusted staff and programs of the Indoor Site and the Outdoor Site.

Both facilities offer memberships and are open to the public. We are a USTA (United States Tennis Association) Welcome Center and beginners or those returning to tennis are most welcome!!!
