The purpose of the Teen Advisory Board is to promote and support team tennis in the Upstate in conjunction with GJTT.  This group offers an opportunity for our teen players to acquire leadership skills, learn about serving our community by using their tennis & service abilities, and to support team tennis in the Upstate.  

We are currently building the 2021 GJTT Teen Advisory Board.  Local junior tennis players (ages 13 and up) who participate in organized team tennis, including GJTT leagues, team tournaments and/or high school tennis (Varsity or JV) are invited to join in.
