Volunteers: Nathan Couch, Sandy Cranston
Team Mom: Kristen White
I am so excited by the turnout of the preseason camp. Thank you to the student-athletes and parents for participating this past week. I think it was a great way to kick off a new era of Rock Canyon Tennis. I am posting some information regarding the Fall '22 season which is quickly approaching.
Fall '22 Tennis Information
- Registration closed August 4 at noon. Registration will re-open August 5 for late registrations. An updated physical form must be uploaded at time of registration in order for your athlete to be cleared for competition.
- Tryouts will run August 8 through August 12 from 3:15pm to 5:30/6pm as needed.
- Coaches will select individual players to tryout for varsity singles based on individual skill level and player preference/desire to play singles. A singles challenge match ladder will be implemented and will be explained in further detail to those individuals.
- The remaining players will play a series of tiebreak doubles matches with various partners throughout the first few days of tryouts. Using an organized scoring system players will move up/down between courts based on points won during these tiebreak doubles matches. Players will then be placed into "clusters" of 6-8 players and will play longer challenge matches with partners in that cluster based on coaches recommendation/player preference of partner.
- Doubles challenge matches will continue in a standard tennis ladder format.
- I fully anticipate player/team performance to determine our varsity lineup. Coach intervention may still occur. Doubles pairings are not necessarily set in stone. For example, a doubles pairing may play three matches together and then be split up later in the process due to players entering the ladder or if coaches want to see different pairings play together.
- For several reasons, the tennis team will be capped this year and I am expecting some kids will not make the team. We have limited court space, limited coaching, and a high interest in the sport of tennis. As a first year head coach, I am working to create a fun, supportive, and competitive culture in the tennis program. As much as I would love to keep each player that comes out, I would not be able to guarantee each player gets fair and adequate attention on the tennis courts. Capping the team makes this vision more within reach.
- It is district policy for tryouts to be CLOSED to parents and spectators. Parents/spectators will be asked to leave. If you have any questions about this please feel free to email me.
- Roster will be set by August 12 at the latest.
Other things:
- August 15: Team photos during practice, parent meeting at RCHS Library 5:30pm - 7pm. Please mark your calendars for August 15 for our parent meeting. Only parents whose children make the team will need to attend.
