Today Granite State Kids, a not for profit Community Tennis Association under the USTA, announced the formation of a Lakes Region and Under Junior Tennis Team. This team will be targeting intermediate players. For a player to be considered intermediate they must be able to get 5 out of 10 serves in, know how to keep score and hit 3 out of 4 balls back into play when the balls are directed to them.

Coaching the team will be Lindsay Aichinger, graduating Senior from Bishop Brady High School. Lindsay is captain of the Brady Girls Tennis Team which finished first in their division. Lindsay’s individual record was 29 wins and one loss. She went undefeated in doubles. Assisting Lindsay will be her mother Barbara Aichinger. Barbara is on the USTA New Hampshire board and long time USTA Adult league player.

“Granite State Kids has a great program in the southern part of New Hampshire with teams from the Seacoast, Sunapee and Manchester Areas” stated Barbara Aichinger. “We would like to see more teams from the Lakes Region join in the fun”. Practices will be once a week in the Gilford area and matches will be on Thursdays in either Concord or Manchester. Matches will often be double headers so kids get ample opportunity to play. The format of the team is five positions. Boys and Girls Singles, Boys and Girls Doubles and Mixed Doubles. “Our practices will be fast paced and fun”, replied coach Lindsay Aichinger, “I have played this format for years and it is fun to be on a co-ed team”. The season runs from the weeks of June 21st to August 5th 2010. Winning teams can advance to the State Championships, New England Championships and even the National Championships.

Registration forms can be found at www.GraniteStateKids.com. The cost is $150.00 per player and includes USTA Membership, team shirt, weekly coached practices, weekly match play, and balls. Interested players and their parents should contact the coaches at TennisNH@comcast.net or call 548-5037.
