Good luck to all the high school players!

Bitterroot Junior Summer League

June 18-July 18, 2019

Hooray for summer! The Jr. Summer League had a total of 21 players register to play in either the entire session, or as drop-ins. Many players were beginners, and saw a huge improvement in their game by the end of the session. Some were inspired to work towards a goal of playing high school tennis...they will be great additions to any team! Another summer session was requested, and we hope to add one in mid August.
