King Daddy Sports is a full service, non-boarding tennis academy that strives to maximize each player’s potential through creating a structured, disciplined, intense, and productive setting for the player, both from a group workout perspective as well as a one-on-one perspective.

     The King Daddy Sports Tennis Academy runs its operation out of the Westheimer Indoor Tennis Club, located in Houston, TX. King Daddy Sports has previously been at Westside Tennis Club, moving there after running its operation at a different club since Fall 1997. The marriage between Westheimer Indoor and King Daddy Sports has been a good one, and we are very excited about a promising future there.

     The King Daddy Sports staff consists of three partners, six full-time teaching professionals, four part-time teaching professionals, and a professional trainer. The years of experience on our staff, and the quality of those years on our staff are what make our product such a success. From the beginner level of play, all the way to the highest level of professional play, our staff has seen and been apart of everything the game of tennis has to offer.

     King Daddy Sports runs a year-round program that is geared for all levels of play. We have a school-year program that runs from August through May, and the afternoon times that we use don’t interfere with the player’s ability to excel in academics. King Daddy Sports also has a summer program that runs from June through the end of July, and that program meets in the morning, allowing for match play or other activities to take place the rest of the day. Also in the summer months, we offer an all-day summer camp for the beginner/intermediate players so that they can receive a lot of repetition in working on their stroke production.

     King Daddy Sports provides a trainer for the players in our program to work with three days a week, and this done on a year-round basis. Lastly, all of the staff members at King Daddy Sports work with members of our academy on a private lesson basis, isolating and working on weaknesses as well as developing weapons and strengths in our player’s games. All of these services provided by King Daddy Sports are rain or shine, meaning that we never cancel lessons due to weather.

     The focus of our group workouts varies with the level of the players in the group that are scheduled to be there. There is definitely more emphasis placed on repetition and stroke production with our younger, less developed groups. As we move up in experience, our focus shifts to patterns, using strengths and exposing weaknesses, and shot selection. With our highest level groups, our focus is point construction, getting the players to learn how to create the type of point that will enable them to get the shot they really want to hit. Even though our focus and our goals will be different for each group, we are consistent with our demand of hard work and dedication on the part of our staff and our players.
