4040 Tennis Academy
About 4040 Tennis Academy
Our tennis program started in 2020 at the Bittersweet Swimming & Tennis Association, in the heart of Greeley, Colorado. Since that time our program has outgrown the Bittersweet facilities, and we have partnered with Northridge High School boys/girls tennis and District 6 to help as many kids as possible learn this great game and hopefully go on to play top level, high school, college, and national tennis. In recent years there has been a decline in tennis, especially youth tennis in Greeley and we wanted to change that. We have gathered up top tennis coaches who have either grown up or played tennis in the Greeley area to keep local tennis alive and well. We are all looking forward to getting our kids back on the Tennis Courts in Greeley. We have also expanded to include tennis lessons for adults.
