Message From the Coach

Some changes on the way! In addition to our newsletters going out more frequently, we are also sending players "Lesson summaries" each week. These will detail what we covered in the lesson, what you did well in as well as what you need to work on. It will also cover what homework you should be doing each week.

If this is your first time getting one of our newsletters, welcome aboard! You will find tournament information, tips and general good stuff all around.

Summer Schedule

All players will keep their current lesson slots unless you decide to give it up in favor of a new one.

In addition, I have added a number of summer lesson slots during the day time including some at Leander High School on Fridays.

In the next week or so I will be contacting all of my players via text confirming their lesson slot as well as sending them some group options as well.
