No-Cut School Tennis Teams

No-Cut School Tennis Teams play a critical role in growing tennis by allowing students of all abilities to be a member of a team representing their school. This opportunity helps to create well rounded student athletes, develops leadership and teaches responsibility.

"What a great idea! NOCUT allowed me to recruit players from all aspects of life. I found a few diamonds in the rough. A couple of the kids have stepped up, and are really helping the team and playing matches in the top 6 or in our doubles. They have developed their games, and have fallen in love with tennis," said George, James Monroe High School, Fredericksburg, Va.
