So who knows who the top Juniors are?
Can anybody name the new and upcoming juniors? I can name one that everyone should check out, her name is Myiesha Simmons! Tennisopolis is blessed to have her as a member. Please check her page, and show her our support with some donations!

(BTW, I changed this to the Junior section).
Is there a website that lists all of the nationally ranked Juniors?

I think there are gray areas in the junior circuit. You have top level players like Myiesha Simmons, but she doesn't get the acknowledgment or recognition that she deserves. There are juniors who don't play nearly as well as Myiesha, but because their parents "know" people, they get recognition. What can we do to help Myiesha get the respect and and recognition this young lady deserves? Input PLEASE!

Ahhh. Thanks for the link. http://www.itftennis.com/juniors/rankings/ http://www.juniortennis.com/
I know Barbara Lewis who I used to play double with ~ 20 yrs ago. Great to see her as a youth program leader and still involved in tennis circle. She also was an awesome lawyer too.
Great efforts in supporting young talent, Mike. Myeisha seems to have great tennis skills at such a young age.

So true Kelvinator. Tennis is a sport that I enjoy very much, tennis for life. I'm sure that we've created and shared so many memories out there but only a few people/players have done or are doing the "giving back". Honestly, I admire the tennis group leaders, founders, and everyone else who have or are doing the job that we members often forgot without them, won't be us. I'm not trying to be a ka'er but Mr. Mayor and DudleyK (TVTA) are two of many other leaders that I'd like to thank them for all the memories. Thanks for all of the givings Mr. Mayor and DudleyK.
