MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — The Middle Tennessee men's tennis program is looking for Murfreesboro area kids in 5th through 8th grade to sign up for our 2025 Ball Kid Program, sponsored by MMC.
Assistant Coach Josh McDermott oversees this year's program, which will provide kids with a great opportunity to be a part of the team for this upcoming spring season.
Ball kids must be in 5th through 8th grade. There are eight spots per match, the first eight to sign up will get the spot. We ask the child and parents stay the duration of the match, if you need to leave early then notify us before leaving. Ball kids are encouraged to arrive 20 to 30 minutes prior to the starting time of the match. All matches in January and February will be held indoors at the Adams Tennis Complex. All matches in March and April will be held outdoors at the new outdoor facility on campus (weather permitting).
Alongside being a vital piece of the tennis operation, the Ball Kid Program offers additional benefits such as:
- Training sessions held at Adams Tennis Complex with the coaching staff and players. (January, TBD)
- A specialized Middle Tennessee State Ball Kid t-shirt for every program participant.
- Free admission for the participant and their families for the duration of the season.
- Interact with the coaching staff and players.
- Get to know our players, learn their cultures and experiences from across the globe.
- Assisting in tennis operations that are vital for the flow of our matches.
The 2025 spring schedule for Middle Tennessee men's tennis features 15 home matches, opening with the seventh-ranked Tennessee Volunteers on Jan. 16 at the Adams Tennis Complex. The Blue Raiders also welcome Utah, New Mexico and South Alabama to Murfreesboro for the Battle in the 'Boro on Feb. 21-23 at the Outdoor Tennis Facility.
