The Problem

Middle school is a tough time for kids, especially girls, trying to accept their bodies and the changes that they are going through. Middle School kids want to be involved and move, and at our middle school there are not many athletic opportunities for 6th graders. I would like to suggest an after school club for boys and girls in grades 6-8.

Plan of Action

The plan of action that I would like to attempt to begin, is a middle school tennis club. (That is the title of our project, tennis anyone?) We would offer it to boys and girls in grades 6-8 at our local university courts. It would happen after school - with our local busses dropping middle school kids off at the UW-Stout courts and parents picking them up at 5:00. We would meet the month of May, when Stout is close to being done with their school year and won't need the courts for their womens team.
