A youth summer tennis clinic at the Batesville Community Center will be held beginning in July.

The clinic is sponsored by NEATennis, a regional organization committed to the physical, mental, and social benefits of fitness and tennis.

Beginning Tuesday, July 7, students have a choice of coming twice a week — Tuesdays and Thursdays — for one fee, or once week either Tuesday or Thursday for another fee.

The last session will fall on Wednesday, Aug. 12 instead of Thursday, Aug. 13, to allow for kids to go back to school.

For ages 6-8, the clinic will be held from 8:30 a.m. to 9:15 a.m. Sessions for ages 9-10 will be from 9:15 a.m. to 10 a.m.  Once a week: $70. Twice a week: $125

Sessions for ages 11-12 will be held from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. while those between the ages of 13-18 will participate in the clinic from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m.  Once a week: $75. Twice a week: $140
