"Fun, Friends, and Fitness Through Urban Tennis"
Welcome to The South Philadelphia Tennis Association
The SPTA Mission:
To provide the South Philadelphia area with the highest quality instructional, social and competitive programming, while oordinating a team of local stakeholders for community outreach and education. We are a team of friends and families that provide access to the unmatched health and social benifits of our unique sport, presented in a simple and accomplishing way.
Our Play-To-Learn approach gets players hitting the ball back and forth the first day out. Remember, it's more fun to hit the ball, than to chase it around to pick it up. Juniors and adults enjoy exciting moments of accomplishment, learning all aspects of the game by playing with new friends and partners. You'll steadily learn healthy shot-making and reliable skills through simple bio-mechanical fundamentals. Players gain a sense of accomplishment that is felt by overcoming managable goals with eachother. Through teamwork and suport, a camaraderi is built between each participant in your group. You and your partners will feel an excitment that builds bonds of friendship worthy of any professional sports team! Come alone or bring a friend, one way or the other you'll have such a blast you'll want to tell everyone at home about your new adventures in play!
Wear Loose clothing, lace up those sneakers, and bring a towel and water to the courts. Missing or making your shots won't matter, giving it all you got will, because becoming a legend takes some work and This Ain't No Country Club!
