I used to hit with my daughter over at Cleveland HS. When we went, there was a sign on the gate door of the courts for a guy named Sean Carr. He played at South Johnston and some in college I believe. He's a great guy and will do great with kids. Last time I was at Cleveland HS, the sign was still there. Tell him Scott sent you!
Clayton Rec & Glen Laurel The Clayton Rec offers classes with a tennis teacher named Rudy. https://secure.rec1.com/NC/clayton-parks-recreation/ Also, there is a Tennis Pro who has tennis lessons at Glen Laurel Tennis club who is very good. http://www.glenlaurelclub.com/tennis.html
Thanks I found a guy teaching in Smithfield parks and rec. We was looking for a guy to teach in our neighborhood since we have tennis courts to play at.
I make a lot of hauls to Knolls of the Neuse subdivision in Wilson Mills / Clayton. They have a tennis club with an instructor most every time I'm out there.
Jimmy J is a friend of mine teaching tennis in Smithfield. Drop me a line if you need someone near Cleveland (40/42) area.
Actually Jimmy is going to be the one teaching the lessons using our tennis courts. Not only people living in our subdivision but others willing to learn how to play.
You are in good hand with Jimmy J. If you and your group are looking for more tennis, Clayton Parks do offer Youth/adult beg./interm. class, there is also Clayton social tennis meetup group, as well as several other tennis instructors in this area. Glen Laura and Neuse River also have additional pro-instructor and offer classes as well. You can also join the USTA and play USTA league matches, out here in Clayton/Cary/Raleigh area. Summer league is already in full swing, Fall's league should be coming up soon. Hope all this help, have fun playing tennis.
