What is the Provincial NTC Program?

This program brings together the top provincial players under the supervision of the top Saskatchewan and National coaches. The program is designed to supplement the great work done by private coaches. The success of the programs depends on the cooperative interaction between private coaches and our NTC coaches.

 

If selected, participating players will be asked to sign a player agreement stating that they will attend the program regularly and compete in selected Tennis Saskatchewan sanctioned events.

 

Regroupings are held monthly September to June. Although this program is supported by both Tennis Canada and Tennis Saskatchewan, a program fee will be collected at the beginning and midpoint of the year. This fee includes all training, sports science, and parent/coach education opportunities.
