August 30, 2018

USTA Nebraska has added two new coordinators to assist with junior play opportunities across its district.
Mike Saniuk will be coordinating the team challenges, as well as red, orange and green Junior Team Tennis Programs. Nate Evans will be coordinating yellow ball Junior Team Tennis.
Mike Saniuk will be coordinating all team challenges as well as red, orange, and green junior team tennis programs. Team challenges are a new USTA product that are an introduction to competition. Team Challenges offer a low level competitive play experience that highlights teamwork and skill development in a fun social environment.
Junior Team Tennis is a competitive, level-based environment that promotes individual growth, social growth and life skills.
Saniuk will also be running youth progression junior team tennis, participants will be able to obtain trophy credits for their participation. Finally, we also look to add other red, orange, and green ball junior team tennis opportunities throughout the district.

Evans said he is “Very excited to get a solid Junior tennis program going in Nebraska. Some of my fondest memories are of playing in these kinds of tournaments as a junior; I want these kids to have the same great experiences I’ve had!”
