Junior Team Tennis is a great way for kids ages 8 to 18 to experience the fun and excitement of competing in tennis matches and playing for a team.

The JTC Mission The Junior Tennis Clinic, Inc. (JTC) is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to providing quality free and or low-cost tennis instruction to culturally diverse, inner-city youth as a tool that supports and enhances their personal growth, physical health and academic achievement.
