On Tuesday since our match vs. Timpview was cancelled we picked teams amongst the girls   and played each other in a scrimmage. It was quality tennis and there were plenty of battles. AF came out victorious on this one.

Nice wins vs. Bingham & Brighton last week ladies! With those two wins our overall record is 7-1 which is the best record to start a season in the past 20 years, way to go!

Many of you have asked about off-season tennis, here is some info. The best way to improve in the off season is to do the following:

1. Hit Daily - there's no substitute for court time . . . meaningful court time.
2. Receive great instruction - someone else to give you tips, pointers, advice.
3. Play matches - tournaments, ladders, anything that makes you nervous, play them!
4. Work out - get your body in great shape for the court; footwork, core, flexibility, etc.

For the first time in school history American Fork won the 2022 State Tennis Championship at Liberty Park over the past weekend!! Congrats to all the players & parents, this has been a long time coming with coutless hourse of hard work and dedication from this years team and from all those in previous years who worked to build up the program. Check out the stories in the news below.

To celebrate our first ever state title, we thought it would be fun to get some more “serving” in before the end of the school year. In order to do this we’ve set up a food drive through Tabitha’s Way. Adam Clarke has set up this service project for us and here’s what we’re doing with it:

“We're going to end this amazing season with some service! We're going to be having a food drive through Tabitha's Way and we're going to have a competition between each grade to see who can bring the most food. There will be a reward for the winners, swag and milkshakes to the victors. All of the containers for the food donations will be kept in Herrud's room, and make sure to put your food in your grade's bin. All of the food that they need should be on this picture. We'll greatly appreciate any/all donations, let's try and make a positive impact in our community together!”

We’ll run this food drive for this week only, May 16 - 19, winner will be announced at our team banquet on Thursday evening.  Competition starts now!!

It’s tournament time and we’re extremely proud of our guys representing AF this year. The boys have put themselves in a great position heading into the tournament. They will play Thursday and hopefully Saturday. Information about the tournament is found below along with links to purchase tickets for each day. If you go up to Liberty Park , plan on purchasing tickets in advance so it’s easy to get in.

The Cavemen played some great tennis over the last weekend down in St. George taking home two trophies for the Duel in the Desert team tournament.

In Bracket B, the boys won every single position.
