Professional Tennis Instruction in Utah
Spring is just around the corner (hopefully!!) and all five nets on the outdoor courts are up. Outdoor courts will operate on a first come first serve basis until May 1st.
Our indoor junior program will run until May 25th.
NEW features to our Champions and Academy Summer Camp. We are adding a daily physical training period with a fitness professional. This will allow our players to get fitter but also allow more match play time as only half of the players will be on court while the other half do their physical training.
Camps Registration for summer programs will begin on March 26th with priority to our Ivory Ridge members until April 30th.
Sign up for adult USTA summer league is now open at the front desk. You can sign up by calling the front desk or on your next visit at the club.
ADULT LEAGUE TEAM POLICY: Over the last year, I have learned a lot about adult USTA league team dynamics mainly because the club has grown and we have more than one team at a given level. I have always tried to stay out of the way, not tell people what to do and who they should play with. I got involved into the politics of league play because I operated with the belief that it is my responsibility that everyone involved enjoys the experience and if any member is unhappy with a situation, then it is my duty to fix it.
Obviously I was not able to reach that goal. After one year of trying I decided to call all the clubs in the area and see what their policies are in regards to league play.
Here are their policies:
Gold’s Gym & Eagle Ridge: Members form their own team.
Sportsmall & Cottonwood Club:
Fall & Winter league: team are formed by the adult coordinator as evenly as possible
Summer league: Members form their own team
I believe that a lot of problems would have been avoided if we had a policy in place. After serious consideration, here is our policy for league play at Ivory Ridge Tennis Club:
Fall & Winter: Teams will be formed as evenly as possible with the collaboration of the concerned team captains and the tennis director. Doubles partners will remain together.
Summer: Members will form their own teams.
I hope that all members will find this policy fair and clear.
We remind you that during the spring there still is a 24 hours cancellation notice for indoor courts.
MORE TENNIS LESSON ARE BETTER? We have often heard that more lessons are better. This comes from well intended parents, but that will not help much if that is all the player does. You can save money and become a better tennis player if you have a "balanced schedule:
Lessons: Groups and Privates .......................................................................... 25%
Practice Play: Sets, ball machine, serves , directed points ................................... 30%
Physical: cardio, Strength, speed, nutrition, ........... ........................................... 25%
Tournaments: Competition ............................................................................... 20%
Most of our players only participate in tennis lessons. As a result their achievements are limited and do not reach their full potential - Only reach 25% of their potential!!
We encourage you to spend the time to practice on and off the court in order to get ready for competition in addition to your lessons. Lessons are necessary in order to get good technique, application and understanding.
Our pro shop will now carry HEAD and BABOLAT racquets. For shoes we offer BABOLAT.
We match the price of the Tennis Warehouse on racquets and shoes in order to give you the best deal along with great service.
ATTENTION - We are a private club and in order to reserve a court or join our programs you must be a member of Ivory Ridge Tennis Club. We would love to have everyone join our club. We do allow non members for 3 specific programs: Tennis USA (adult beginners), Pee Wee's for beginners (age 4-7) and summer tennis camps.
We have a variety of options to become a member. NEW MEMBERSHIP available for Single Tennis Membership. For more information please call 801-331-6000 and ask for Tamara.
See you on the courts!!
