| Team History | ||
|---|---|---|
| The Duke Club Tennis Teams practice two to four times a week during the outdoor season and two to three times a week during the indoor season. During practice, the team focuses on match play and stroke-specific drills. Matches are scheduled against other college club tennis teams, as well as local D-II and D-III varsity teams. The team boasts a number of highly ranked national junior players who opted to enroll at Duke over playing for D-I or D-III varsity programs elsewhere. The team's mission statement is "sic transit gloria tennio" -- "short is the glory of tennis." |
