🎾 Looking for the right way to get your child started in tennis?
Tennis Launchpad starts September 19 at Blackburn Tennis Club.
Designed for young players who are ready to learn the game and start building real tennis skills, Tennis Launchpad uses the Red, Orange and Green Ball pathway to help children develop at the right pace, on the right court, with the right equipment.
The program is overseen by SCORE Tennis and led on court by Coach Sean Sweeney and Coach Tristan Bazinet, with an emphasis on learning proper fundamentals, movement, rally skills and how to actually play the game.
This isn’t about rushing kids into high-performance tennis. It’s about giving them a strong enough foundation that, if they love the sport and want to keep progressing, they have somewhere to go next.
Learn the game. Build the skills. Earn the next level.
📅 Starts September 19
📍 Blackburn Tennis Club
🎾 Red • Orange • Green Ball

You cannot control everything that happens in a tennis match.
You can control what happens next.
Mental performance begins when players stop wasting energy on the opponent, the conditions, the last point, or the result—and redirect that energy toward their breathing, body language, decisions, and response.
Control the next ball.
Next Ball.

Fall/Winter 2026 Player Recruitment Is Now Open
SCORE Tennis is beginning placement conversations for committed junior players seeking a structured, standards-based training environment.
We are looking for players who are prepared to train with purpose, accept coaching, strengthen their fundamentals, compete, and take increasing responsibility for their development.
Placement is not determined by age alone. We consider each player’s current level, goals, training history, competitive needs, commitment, and fit within the group.
Places will remain limited so we can protect coaching quality and the standards of the training environment.
If your family is looking for purposeful coaching and a clear development pathway, send us a private message with FALL/WINTER.
Please include the player’s age, current level, training history, and goals.
Next Ball.
