County and the Thanksgiving holiday, our Nov. conditioning schedule (found on the website) is going to be cancelled. I'm hoping I can see you all again on Wednesday, Dec. 2.

Hello BV Girls Tennis Families, This has been a very different March-October but we are happy to announce the district and county have approved us to begin conditioning practices as long as we follow strict guidelines. Hopefully rackets and balls will be allowed soon, but we will take what we can get for now. 🙂 Important Dates: Preseason Conditioning/Practices (not mandatory) We will be starting on Tuesday, November 3 & 4 (not meeting on Friday, Nov. 6 this week). Tuesday’s, Wednesday’s, and Friday’s. 3:15-4:15 through November, then until 5 pm starting in December. We may switch our Fridays to Thursdays later in our season. We are sharing the courts and season with the boys team, so we will not be practicing daily. Matches are Tuesday’s and Thursday’s for the girls. League begins Feb. 28, but we will start scrimmages about Feb. 8. I am scheduling a few now and will update you all as those dates are finalized. Tryouts (mandatory) start February 1st and will last all week. Unfortunately with the restrictions and added things we need to do at practices, we will not be carrying a large team this year. The team will consist of about 15 Varsity and 10-12 Junior Varsity (Exhibition) team members. I hope to return to the non-cut status next season. Rollingwood, Gold River and Miller Park have courts and pros who are offering clinics. Please ask if interested and I can guide you to those pros. Tell them you are practicing for the BV Girls Tennis Team. Some guidelines to follow for Conditioning Practices are listed below. Please make sure you discuss these as a family so everyone is aware. 🎾 Players should come straight from the parking lot to the tennis courts for temperature check and health question screening. No one with a fever or any other symptoms will be able to practice. 🎾 Everyone must maintain at least 6' distance at all times. 🎾 PLEASE do not congregate near the tennis shed, in the parking lot, etc 🎾 If players are waiting for rides after practice, please make sure they are not interacting with other students, etc. 🎾 Everyone must wear a mask to the courts and while walking back to the parking lot. 🎾 Practices are closed - only athletes and coaches are permitted to keep exposure to a minimum. Parents, please remain in your cars when dropping off or picking up. If you need to communicate with me, please text me and I’ll walk out to the parking lot or I can call you back after practice. 🎾 No equipment is allowed at this time, please only bring water and personal items that are necessary 🎾 Before coming to practice please register onSportsNet. SJUSD is allowing us to extend last year's physicals for another year so if your athlete was registered for BV sports last year they will be cleared again. If your student did not play a BV sport last year you will need a new physical or if you have one on a SJUSD form from middle school you may upload that for clearance. 🎾 Players must bring water and make sure they have eaten breakfast and/or lunch. 🎾 Restroom facilities are very limited at this time so "go" at home/school before you come to the courts. 🙂 We are excited to get together (in a socially distanced manner) and get moving! As you can see from the important dates above, things are still very fluid, but we hope to have some sort of normal season and will send out more info when it's available. Go Broncos! ** Please direct any interested players/families to the website. **Oct. 8 Update** If you missed the Oct. 8 Zoom Informational Meeting, contact me and I'll share the new link for Sunday, Oct. 11 at 7 pm.

I am working on the possibility of getting out on the courts in a safe way prior to Feb. Stay tuned here and on our Instagram and Twitter accounts. Click here for the CIF - San Joaquin Section Announcement Boys and Girls tennis will be at the same time this year, so we are working diligently on what that will look like on the courts and for matches. Due to practice/court restrictions, we are currently looking at 15 Varsity and 10 JV players this year - a change from last year. Practice, practice, practice as much as you can safely!
