Why Tennis?

The game of tennis provides many health and social benefits to players including:

Improved Fitness

Increased aerobic capacities, lower heart rate and blood pressure.

Self-confidence and Discipline

Mastering tennis requires patience, time, dedication, and grit.

Improved Social Life

Tennis helps you socialize as you interact with other players, coaches, and families.

Boosted Mood

Tennis players are more optimistic and are less anxious, angry, and depressed than people who play other sports or are sedentary.

Community Response to WMCT

I am excited to be part of WMCT which supports teaching life skills like sportsmanship, perseverance and confidence to youth in the area through the game of tennis

Without WMCT Grand Rapids would have lost Tennis in the Park, a community staple that's existed for over 30 years. I am thrilled WMCT is carrying the torch to provide quality tennis instruction to kids throughout Grand Rapids, and beyond!
