Tennis is one of the most difficult sports for progressing to a high level. Even when you overlook the hard work, talent, determination and luck that you need to reach the top, one of the most common reasons for failure is funding.
As most tennis players know and realize, getting to the highest level is expensive. It takes a lot of money to travel, enter the necessary tournaments and getting coached by the best. Without a sponsor this is extremely difficult.
Also it leaves players in a situation where they must devote every ounce of focus and energy to tennis. What then happens after your career? What do you do? Even professional players often do not have the resources to retire after their career.
College Tennis gives tennis players an opportunity to continue their development whilst getting an education. Student-athletes play full-time tennis and compete against universities all across the USA. The level is extremely high and the set-up very professional. The likes of John Isner (ATP) came through the college system before turning professional.

The best part is, because of the magnitude of college sports in the USA, coaches can offer scholarships to cover most if not all the expenses.

Barnwell inks NLI!
The very talented Elliot Barnwell from Atherstone, England has inked a National Letter of Intent to play tennis for Middle Tennessee State University starting in the fall semester of 2010. This is a very exciting move for the former #1-UK junior player, as he gets the chance to combine exercise science studies with high level tennis.
Factors that were important in Barnwell’s choice were the reputation of the school and the quality of the tennis team. MTSU is a very respected and nationally recognized institution and Barnwell is expected to come in and be of immediate impact for the team.
