Annual Tennis Report:

            2007 tennis season report is attached via Word Document. 

Questions were raised regarding the Meadows junior tennis program and why it is not perceived as a feeder for the local high school tennis team.  It was proposed that the Board survey the membership on what they like or dislike about the junior tennis program.  Comments regarding the methods and techniques used in the tennis program were made.  Some members expressed a desire to have advanced lessons that focus on technique and strategy in addition to the game focused lessons.  Some members also expressed a need for a lead tennis pro to focus on the junior tennis program.

 

Annual Swim Report:

2007 Swim report is attached via a Word document. 

There is a general concern among members that the swim team numbers are down.  The demographics of the Club and surrounding community have skewed toward “empty nesters.”  Members are highly satisfied with the level of organization around the swim program.  Some concern among members that the changes in the Boulder Valley School District schedule will negatively impact the swim team.
