Assistant Director of Tennis

The Assistant Director of Tennis will spend time both on the court and off the court. ARC is a vibrant club with highly active lesson takers and USTA participation. Our membership is comprised of active youth and adults, with league play, social events, and tournament play. We have a highly active junior development program, including grassroots programs that begin at age 4 and lead up to our ARC Academy, which is our advanced tournament level juniors. Our adult members demonstrate elevated levels of participation for leagues, lessons, clinics and social events. Administrative responsibilities would take up about 20 hours per week, while the remainder of this person's time will be spent on court. The administrative responsibilities will include, but are not limited to, new member assimilation with current member groups, helping current USTA captains fill teams and/or new members get on USTA teams, run Try Tennis and continue to build USTA teams at the 2.5 level, assist in member communication regarding tennis, and run winter intraclub programs, which could include WTT. We are excited to add to our high-level team of professionals.
