Our son has been a participant in the developmental stream of RCC junior tennis program for several years. The program is constantly evolving to meet the needs of its participants and the tennis community as whole. Last year Helen Kelesi was added to the coaching staff – and what a fantastic addition she has been! Under her tutelage, our son finished the year in the top 5 in BC in the Under 9 age category and for this calendar year he currently occupies the top spot. One of the beauties of the program is the wide range of abilities it caters to. This has been very motivating for our son as he looks up to the older, more advanced kids and can't wait to get there himself! The experienced and diverse coaching staff work unbelievably well together as a cohesive unit and do an excellent job at grouping kids together based not only on ability but also on personal goals.

As a top junior in BC, I have had the privilege of training in the RCC High Performance Program. Every practice is full of effort, energy, and intensity. While pushing us to reach our full potential, the RCC coaches nail the balance between hard work and having fun. For me, enjoying the game is crucial and my passion for tennis keeps me engaged and eager to put in that extra 10% – the training environment at RCC encourages that additional effort. Not only have the coaches helped improve my strokes, but they have developed me to be an all-around player. Furthermore, they are caring mentors who look out for me both on and off the court. My junior tennis career is soon coming to an end and the RCC High Performance Program has helped me achieve my goals. In the fall of 2018, I will be attending Yale University and competing for them in the NCAA Division 1 Women's tennis. I am ecstatic at the opportunity to attend a world-class school, and RCC has definitely helped me get there.

The RCC high performance program is one of the best junior tennis programs in the country. It is a competitive environment where players and coaches push each other to get better every day. Being in the program for almost my entire junior career taught me how to work hard, stay committed, and ultimately receive a Division 1 scholarship, which had been my goal my whole life. I have been coached by head tennis pro Henry Choi since I was around 12 years old. He and all the RCC coaches genuinely care about my improvement as a tennis player and as a person.

For me, although I only trained at RCC for just over a year, getting to consistently work with great coaches like Henry, Carl, etc, was incredible. Each of them brings a different skill set and has helped me with different aspects of my game. While the technical work I did with the RCC coaches was pivotal to my development, having mentors who really cared, and still do care about my well being and that have my back is what I found most rewarding. More than anything else, listening to each of their experiences with tennis, college in particular, has helped me a tremendous amount in my first year at school.
