Haggard Tennis welcomes all 7th and 8th grade boys
and girls to participate in the tennis program. We are the
only team sport that has two competitive seasons, fall and spring.
- Try outs are held after school in August and again in February.
All students will be provided an equal opportunity to
demonstrate their stroke skills and game play strategies.
- All students need a pair of red, blue, white or black athletic
shorts (tennis) with pockets, tennis shoes, tennis racket
and a white T-shirt or Haggard spirit T-shirt. Girls
may wear the traditional tennis skirt in either blue, red,
black or white.
Students will be evaluated using two categories:
Objectively: The
students will be required to exhibit fundamental tennis skills
ranging from movement, agility, forehand, backhand, volley,
serve and challenge matches.
Subjectively: The
coach will evaluate the students in areas such as academics, teamwork,
leadership, citizenship, and attitude.
The top eight to ten girls and boys will make the Haggard Middle
School Tennis Team. |
