WFJTA offers a full range of tennis instruction and training at all levels, from beginners to state-ranked players.   Originated back in 1986 by Peter Farrell in Katy, our program provides a great way for young athletes to improve their skill and understanding of the game of tennis by participating with players of their own competitive ability.  Our staff of five tennis professionals is committed to producing solid, consistent players through close attention to stroke production as well as intensive drills, match play, and match analysis.   Graduates of our program have excelled in state high school competition, U.S.T.A. tournaments, major college programs, and professional tennis.
