After 25 years in Florida and the Caribbean my wife and I have relocated to beautiful Martha's Vineyard, MA. Although we made it through our first winter without a scratch, it was a little cold. I realized I could not wait until the summer, but in Florida, it was the opposite, you dreaded the summer. I also realized that after teaching inside a bubble for six months, I have some white skin! Oh well, I am sure my Dermatologist will appreciate it.

Things are hopping at the Vineyard Youth Tennis Center with an increased amount of children and activities. We topped out at over 200 children per week in the Fall, Spring and Winter and summertime brings us around 300 children per week! I know, I am lucky I am still alive, but I do enjoy it and have been doing it for a long time, it keeps me young.

Welcome to my website and I hope you enjoy it. As you go through the different tabs you will find info about myself, the facility and other stuff. I would love to hear from you as I am always open to discuss anything you like about tennis. I can be contacted on the contact page.
