Glenmore Athletic Park — Tennis

My daughter, age 9, has been attending the tennis program at Glenmore Athletic Park in Calgary for the past few weeks. The instructors, particularly a coach named Jake, are truly engaged with the kids, making sure that everyone gets personal attention. The small group size has allowed her to develop her skills at a comfortable pace, and she’s made a friend who shares her love for sports. The outdoor setting is perfect, with plenty of space around the courts for family members to relax. One minor annoyance was the occasional long lines for court time, which made waiting frustrating for both the kids and parents. Overall, I would recommend this program for parents looking for a fun, active environment for their children. Just be prepared for potential wait times during busy sessions!

I recently enrolled my 9-year-old son in the tennis program at Glenmore Athletic Park in Calgary. Overall, we had a solid experience. The instructors, particularly Jenna, were engaging and attentive, ensuring each child received the right level of instruction. My son learned some basic serves and even made a new friend during the drills, which was a highlight for him. The outdoor setting next to Lakeview Golf Course makes for a lovely atmosphere, and he loved being active in the fresh air. However, the sessions can get a bit crowded, especially on weekends, which sometimes makes it hard for the kids to focus. Also, picking him up was a bit chaotic with the number of parents waiting, so I'd recommend arriving early if you can. Still, I'd recommend this program for other parents looking for a fun way for their kids to learn tennis. It’s a nice blend of instruction and play.
