CLUB TENNIS FALL '10 (6-27-10)
Greetings!

If you've navigated to this page, hopefully it's because you're looking into UW CLUB TENNIS!


FIRST OF ALL, IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, please email me, Lauren, at lsmyczek@wisc.edu. Please DISREGARD the website's list of contacts!
There is a new website under construction, so look for cool new updates!


Tryouts will most likely be the second week of school. Check back to this website for specifics once school gets closer.
ALSO, check around the workout facilities on campus- the NAT and the SERF for flyers about tryouts.

UW Club Tennis is comprised of a Recreational Team and a Travel Team. Both involve membership dues; however, the Travel Team's fees are higher because
1) they practice 2x per week (as opposed to the rec team's 1x/week)
2) there are traveling expenses such as hotel fees when they go to tournaments around the Midwest and the country
3) the travel team also hosts various matches and tournaments throughout the year, which involve extensive court fees and other expenses.

The travel team dues typically are 300/year or 160/semester. The rec team's dues are significantly lower.

The travel team and rec team also have practice attendance policies. While matches are never required, travel team members may only miss 2 practices per month without incurring a penalty. This process will be explained in detail once you join the team.

There is currently NO EMAIL LIST for me to place you on.

The travel team and the rec team share tryouts, so if you are not sure which one is right for you, come to the tryouts and we can decide based on your level of play!

Hope to see you in September! And remember, just look for flyers around campus!!

Midwest Tennis on Campus Championships (3-7-10)
Congratulations to the UW Madison Club Tennis Teams, both Red and White!

The Red team made it into the Gold Bracket, doing a fantastic job in their pool.

The White team won their pool Friday. On Saturday, they started out the day with a big win over Marquette, then beat Michigan B in the semis. In the finals they lost to Michigan's A team.

It was a fantastic weekend, with great support from all of the UW players' parents and friends. With the hard work of Megan Bartholomew, event coordinator, free bagels and free burritos from Chipotle were provided both Friday and Saturday. Thanks also to Scott Peiser and Adam Pollack, captains of Red team and white team, respectively, for their hard work and great coaching. Thanks finally to Steve Wise, Midwest TOC Director. His dedication and effort are much appreciated!

Go RED!!

Please come to ONLY ONE OF THE TWO DAYS. Bring your information sheets printed and filled out. All other ages must try out Friday the 4th.

All tryouts are at the lakeshore courts from 5-6:30
