Junior Training Program (JTP)

---

• Players must be granted approval in order to join the JTP.
• Players must be a member of the MLRC
• Although match-play programs are open to all players, JTP clinics are designed for JTP/Masters or approved players, as we foster a more serious brand of tennis with these players.
• Orange ball classes at this level are for 1.5 hours.  Green ball classes are for 2 hours. Yellow ball classes are for 2.5 hours which includes 25-35 minutes of fitness training with a personal trainer.   Click here to see the JTP/Masters class schedule. 
• Match play sessions occur on weekends through our Junior Challenger Series League. Click here to learn more about the league and see the schedule.
• Middle school and high school yellow ball players will be credited for the spring tennis season if tennis team tryouts or their tennis team schedule conflicts with MLRC’s JTP schedule.
• The annual deadline for enrollment is September 1. After that date, players will not be admitted until the following September. The exception is a player who is new to the MLRC and was not aware of the program previously.
• Cost of the program reflects a 5% discount of regular session fees for clinic, match play, and conditioning class. For those who stay in the program continuously without interruption through the entirety of high school 10% of the JTP program fees will be set aside and refunded to the player after completing and graduating from high school.  This is not retroactive and begins with the  program year.
• The commitment is from September through mid-June.  Payment is made in two installments.  Other arrangements can be made if necessary.
• 2025 - 2026 Dates: Season starts 9/2 and ends 6/13.   Off days are as follows:  10/13, 11/11, 11/27, 11/28, 1/19, 5/23, 5/25. Off weeks are as follows:  12/21 to 1/1, 2/15 to 2/21 and 4/19 to 4/25.
• Parents may choose to prorate up to two weeks of classes between September and January 1 (i.e., during Fall Sessions I and II), and between January and mid June (i.e., during Winter and Spring Sessions). In other words, you have the option to prorate up to two match days, two clinics, and two conditioning classes before the beginning of each period (Fall and Winter/Spring). We must know these dates BEFORE the beginning of each period so that invoices can be calculated. 2025 - 2026 dates: Prorates allowed are 2 class days and 2 match days 9/8 to 12/20 and the same from 1/2 to 6/13.  Dates are due to renee.giordano@marcuslewisenterprises.com. by 8/15 & 12/15.  
• Because of the discounted rate as well as the ability to prorate out classes, make-ups are NOT granted for missed classes.
