My 12 yr. old wants to take tennis lessons in the Allen area. Any suggestions? Anyone know how much it costs. Thanks.
There is a tennis camp over at Cooper Aerobics Center @ Craig's Ranch this Summer. That is the only thing I know of. Message me if you would like the specifics on that. Otherwise, check The City of Allen Parks and Rec website. I have a neighbor whose son took tenis and I believe it was through the parks and rec department.
There are also tennis camps at Eldorado Country Club in McKinney near Hwy 75 & Eldorado. I think they give regular lessons there also. Here's the link:
You might try Parks & Rec. I think they give lessons also. I know Plano Parks & Rec does, but not sure about Allen.
Allen Parks and Recs offers tennis lessons. You can look on their website for times and cost information.
We are looking into having our seven year old take them this summer.

Hi Jill -
I am a competitive tennis player myself and I live in Allen too! I love it when kids get interested in tennis!
The closest public tennis center is High Point, just West of 75 Central on Spring Creek Pkwy. They have group or private lessons there all the time. Not sure of the cost, but group lessons are cheaper than private, and probably would be more fun. Their phone number is 972-941-7170.
Also, I believe the Allen Parks and Rec offer tennis lessons. Not sure where they are given though.
I hope this helps - good luck! Heather
There are pros that teach out of Allen High school courts...I not sure of the prices but they are comperable to others in the area like Plano and McKinney. My daughers had lessons there in the past (few years ago) and enjoyed them.
There are also summer camps if you don't want to make the long term committment
Hi. A dear friend of mine teaches tennis lessons. He has won several titles in his division.
I was introduced to him theu my neighbor who is a podiatrist. Harlan was teaching his daughter before she went to college.
At any rate, he has become as close to my husband and I as our neighbor is! His name is Harlab Hopchick. His mobile number is 469-556-4677. His email is [email protected]. He has clients in McKinney and Allen. I believe he is reasonable in his prices. Good luck

I don't know of anyone but you might email the tennis coach at Allen High School and ask. I know they have an active tennis team there. I played for 10 years growing up and its a great thing to have your kids involved in.

Calling all parents, before you hire a personal trainer, you should help your kids to reach that basic level of tennis play first. In this way, you will save yourselves a lot of time and money! go to: (www.einstein007technologies.com) NO TRAINER NEEDED!
