"Attitude is the little thing that makes a BIG difference"

We try to instill this belief in every player in the development of his or her tennis game and in life. In December 2002, the Kingsmill Professional Staff created the Kingsmill Junior Winter Training Center, an extension of the already highly successful junior tennis program at Kingsmill. The Training Center will play a key role in developing high school, and tournament players to their potential.An all encompassing program including stroke mechanics/production, footwork, strategy, mental work, and fitness. This high-level training and intensity is provided for players that have a strong desire to pursue tennis to the next level. Our professionals will help players realize their potential and instill a desire to play at the next level, be it at the high school, tournament, college level, or beyond. This Training Center is not for beginners or advanced beginners. If you have this desire, playing ability, and a positive attitude, the professional training staff welcomes you to this program. If you are new to the program, a Kingsmill Tennis Professional must approve all new sign ups with a 30 minute evaluation lesson.

The Junior Training Center Program is made up of three components.

The first two parts of the training center take place Monday through Thrusday from 4pm to 6pm. The third part of the program are the week long camps offered in April, June, July, and August (Fitness is highlighted in all phases).
