Seminole HP is stepping it up!



We’re pretty awesome here at Seminole High Performance. Over the years of the SHP tradition, we have developed ambitious young tennis players into the current Tallahassee tennis superstars, and we continue to work hard and motivate our students to excel in the sport through multiple different avenues. We’ve recently reconvened with our coaching staff to assess our successes and what we need to continue to build on to make our program the continuing stand-out tennis training program in not just Tallahassee alone, but in North Florida in general. 

Our major focus, is, of course, the kiddos. We want to motivate our players to be the best they can be, and to do that, we need to focus on inspiration, practices that instill integrity and discipline, and the incorporation of team elements. Creating a team out of SHP is essential to our success—in order to do this, we will begin incorporating team-building both during clinics as well as incorporating outside events such as Seminole High Performance socials, where you can get to know the players that go to SHP as well as the coaching team. Not part of SHP yet but want to be? This is a great event to attend in order to meet and greet current players and coaches at SHP. 

In addition to socials, we will also be sending a tournament coaching team to specific tournaments at least once a month starting in March 2014. This will instill Seminole pride in our players and will allow the advantage of having a passionate and knowledgeable coach at the tournament sites. This is a great way of introducing your SHP players to tournament competition—all of our coaches have been prior players and know how to professionally deal with factors that affect all players at tournaments, including match prep, nervousness, third set feedback, and match reflection. All coaches that travel to tournaments will set up dinners with all SHP parents and players, incorporating a friendly and team-building environment at the tournament level. To find out more about tournament travel, please don’t hesitate to call or ask to be place on the SHP mailing list via seminolehptennis@gmail.com or http://www.seminoletenniscamps.com/.
If you have any feedback for us or any kind of evaluation of how we can serve you better, whether you are a parent, student, or potential client, please do not hesitate to email seminolehptennis@gmail.com or leave a comment below!

In Seminole spirit, go noles!!
