Snow was falling at 6:30 AM as I stood on the MMHS Tennis Courts Saturday, but the sun soon peeked through the clouds and burned off snow and water; and at the 10 AM appointed hour over 100 hundred tennis students from all over Utah County were ready to stroke the ball out on the MMHS Tennis Courts at the first annual FREE Tennis Clinic!
To be precise their were 104 students, who ran and played hard for 2 hours--soaking up free instruction from top tennis professionals and players.
Special thanks to ATP Touring Tennis Professional, Dann Battistone, for his surprise appearance and instruction! Also thanks to Maple Mountain High School Tennis Players for giving back to our community by promoting, hosting and instructing the day all gratis!
Thanks to former BYU player John Hullinger, Coach Adam Folkman, Gary Wiscombe, Chris Wiscombe, Hunter Hullinger, Art Porter, Braden George, Nick H. Taylor, Jerry Whiting, Ryan Porter, Justin Beary and Blaine Blonquist, for donating your time and expertise!
And thanks to all who participated! And for all who still want to sign up for 7 June Tennis Camp hustle while slots are still open: register online at http://mmhstennis.blogspot.com/
