Girls Tennis fosters growth by focusing on younger players
Spartan Varsity Tennis is off to a great start with a record of 8-5 as of Sept. 20. Along with having a great record, they also successfully bonded as a team. “Our season has been really successful so far. We have won a few really difficult matches, and seeing the team rally together was definitely a highlight,” captain Numi Katz said.
Since many of the team members are fairly young, the team is working on helping younger players who have time left on the team. “We have a super young team, so we are working on bridging that gap, but practices and matches are still really fun,” Katz said.
With sections coming up, the team is hoping to work together well and go far. “I hope we keep improving as a team and come together. Hopefully, we have a successful run in team and individual sections,” Katz said.
With many players on the team being underclassmen, the emphasis on teaching the youth the culture of the program is essential.
