Successful candidates possess the passion, energy, knowledge of tennis and desire to continue the tradition of our successful athletic programs. They must have the leadership and organizational skills to manage a team of driven and high-performing student-athletes and the communication skills to relate to the current generation of student-athletes, our athletics administration and families.

- Officials Coaches are to respect and support game officials at all times.
- Assistant Coaches An assistant coach supports the head coach at all times when communicating with players, other students, parents, and faculty members. Public criticism of other coaches is always inappropriate and unacceptable.
