We give kids an ‘advantage’ learning to play tennis with the coaching philosophy we use in our Advantage R-O-G programs. Advantage classes are the entry point for kids getting into tennis and perfect for kids only interested in recreational play.  These classes are the stepping stones in the path for those interested in higher-levels of competition.

Our 2015-2016 school year programs kick off the week of August 24, 2015 and run through May 27, 2016.  Advantage Red is for 5 & 6 year old kids. Advantage Orange is for 7, 8, & 9 year olds and Advantage Green is for kids 10 and older with minimal or no competitive tournament experience.

Advantage classes are held as a two-day combination on either Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday. Enrollment for all Advantage classes is monthly, with payment due at the time of enrollment.  New participants will only be allowed to join the class at the beginning of each month as long as there is space available in the class. We strongly recommend that along with group lessons, your child should take a minimum of 1 private lesson per month and begin playing tournaments as soon as possible.
Advantage Red classes are held 4:00-5:00 pm …

Duey Evans created Midcourt Tennis Academy more than 10 years ago while coaching in Charlotte, North Carolina. He brought his Academy, programs, teaching philosophies, and ability for developing great players to the Dallas-Ft. Worth area and to Samuell Grand Tennis Center.

Midcourt Tennis Academy consists of three different levels of youth tennis programs – Advantage, Junior Drills and NOW.  Each program is designed to work with a specific level of player along the various stages of development, and when looked at comprehensively, Midcourt Tennis Academy provides players and parents an overall roadmap to follow for their child’s unique journey in tennis. Our core philosopy, when it comes to developing players and how we work with our clients, is to create a passion for the game of tennis while teaching the skills that open the door to enjoying a lifetime sport at every level.
