Varsity Team 2010


The Team

Brewster offers a strong, full range tennis program for the competitive player, the recreational player interested in improving skills, and the beginner. In the fall, students can participate in an instructional tennis program three afternoons a week, and during the winter trimester indoor tennis is also available three afternoons. Competitive tennis takes place in the spring when teams typically practice four days a week and compete with other schools twice a week.

We offer both varsity and a second level team that compete in the Lakes Region League. Both levels of play focus on individual development and improvement within a well defined curriculum that emphasizes all facets of the game, including technique, strategy, fitness, and mental toughness.

 

Team members learn to become more independent players by analyzing all aspects of their game after each match. Players progress from diagnosing the weaknesses in their own games to remedying them and recognizing and capitalizing on the weaknesses of their opponents' game. This is a particularly important skill and is often overlooked in a sport where coaching in a match is limited and where many people continue playing after high school or college without a coach.

There is a strong emphasis on teamwork and sportsmanship along with a focus on the individual qualities of perseverance, drive, and competitive spirit.

.The varsity squad has had consistently winning teams throughout its Brewster history, with varsity players often winning the Lakes Region League Tournament. Many players have gone on to play in college.

The new Smith Center for Athletics and Wellness provides more room to do team specific training in the fitness center and portable nets are available for indoor practice on the convertible turf.



2009 Season Recap

The Girls Varsity Tennis team had an awesome first season on the school's new tennis courts. The team consisted of 11 players led by co-captains Anna Parker (Senior) and Ally Reiner (Junior). For the second year in a row the team captured the Lakes Region League championship with nine wins (two of them counting double for 11) and one loss. In the Lakes Region tournament, Katie Samuelson at #1 singles, Anna Parker/Ally Reiner at #1 doubles and Kate Fridholm/Mana Maruyma at #2 doubles all made it to the finals. At the end of the season the following awards were given: MVP- Angie Cotherman with only one loss in both singles and doubles. MIP- Kate Fridholm went from not playing in a match last season to having the most wins(16) on the team this season. Coaches award- Anna Parker as captain and senior and for four years of service to girls varsity tennis. Anna Parker and Brooke Garnett are the only seniors leaving the team so look for another strong team next year.
