Baby Jay
This program is a thoughtful blend of TENNIS, FUN, and GAMES, all of which are geared toward proper strokes and motor skills. This clinic will greatly assist young children with coordination and give them a sound combination of basic motor skills for ALL sports. The use of shorter courts and softer balls allows for the youngest of players to enjoy success early while learning some basic fundamentals to help them begin their lifetime sport adventure!
For ages 3-5!

Jayhawk Tennis Center offers two routes for junior players – a competitive and a high performance pathway
While the competitive pathway is excellent for most players who are looking to play on their school teams or simply develop a love of the game that can last a lifetime, our Jayhawk Tennis Academy offers players an opportunity to reach the highest levels of the game, competing in USTA, UTR, and ITF events in and around the country. Many of our groups have overlapping drill times, which we use to offer a wider variety of hitting partners for all ages, as well as to create a more cohesive, mentor-based program.
For the competitive pathway, we offer Jayhawk Development and Jayhawk Competition. For the high performance pathway, go to the Jayhawk Tennis Academy page to learn more.
