I ran across this compilation of information for parents of junior tennis players at the website of The Racquet Club of Columbus. There is a wealth of valuable information, some of it specific to that area and the Midwest section, but most of it applicable to anyone entering the subculture of junior tennis. From tips to Dos and Don'ts to high school tennis and scoring, it's all here.
And speaking of parenting, there's a lengthy feature in The New York Times by Pat Jordan called "Daddy's Little Phenoms." The girls are not tennis players, they're golfers, but the similarities are much greater than the differences.
Finally, in a complete different vein, there is another New York Times piece that may be of interest to those who have asked about the requirements for admission to Ivy League schools for tennis players. Although this is centered around basketball, there is insight into the numbers and process at Harvard and other Ivys.
