USTA-NFHS Online Course for Tennis Coaches

The USTA and NFHS have partnered to develop an online course for tennis coaches. The course provides a student-centered curriculum in tennis coaching techniques and methods for interscholastic teacher/coaches. Coaching Tennis for High School covers the court from coaching styles and developing your coaching philosophy to managing your team and your practices. The “Coaching Tennis” online course developed by United States Tennis Association has been added to the available courses through the NFHS Learning Center at www.NFHSLearn.com.
