Sherwood Tennis

Important ParentSquare Info here.  Short version - this is our only way to communicate with you, so please start using it.  Sooner is better.  New players will need to register for tennis to be added - see below for links.

​​

Important Dates:​​

• January 23 (Thursday) - Pre-Season Meeting 6:30pm in the SHS Auditorium

• March 3, 2025 - The first day of official practice

To participate starting March 3rd, players will need to:

1. Have a physical exam from the last two years on file with the school.  This needs to be one on an official form - you can find a link to that form on this page.

2. Register for Girls Tennis with the school: Click here.  Participation fees do NOT need to be paid up front, but players must register.  FYI - it helps the coaches plan for the season if you do this early instead of waiting until the last minute.

​

Planning Update for Varsity Contenders: 

We will have some optional Saturday practices for those planning to try out for varsity.  If that is your plan and you want to be invited, make sure Peter knows.  Unfortunately, those in other school sports now cannot participate.

​​

The Roseburg Tournament is April 18 & 19 (Fri/Sat).  Sunday the 20th is Easter.  The travel plan would be to leave Thursday and return Saturday evening. 

​

​Welcome to the 2024-2025 School Year:
If you are new to Sherwood, or new to Sherwood Girls Tennis, feel free to reach out to let us know who you are.  We'll make sure to keep you updated on things you need to know to be ready for tennis in the Spring.  Email Coach Peter at hwenceslao@sherwood.k12.or.us to get in the loop.
 

​Fitness:

We will prioritize fitness and footwork for the upcoming season.  Here are the expectations for all Varsity players in 2025:

• Run - 1.5 miles in 14 mins.

• Plank - 1 minute

• Pushups - 10 reps

• Burpees - 15 reps

• Sit-ups - 30 reps

• Air squats - 20 reps

• Jump rope - 1 minute

• Wall sit - 45 seconds

• Lunges - 20 reps (10 each side)

​

Getting fit is the quickest and easiest way to become a better tennis player.  Anyone interested in playing or trying out for Varsity should be able to perform all of the exercises above by the first day of tryouts (March 3).  We recommend that you work on these 3-4 times a week as soon as you can.
