Earn PE credit at the lowest rate.
ERA is an approved off-campus program for official Conroe ISD PE credit. Your kid trains on a court with a coach, and it counts toward their PE requirement.
CISD-enrolled students pay $100 a month instead of $175.
PE credit is granted by the district, not by ERA. Confirm enrollment paperwork with your campus counselor. Contact us and we’ll send what you need.

Skill-based groups
Kids are grouped by level inside the class, so a first-timer isn’t drilling against a tournament player.
Indoor and supervised
Climate-controlled, well lit and supervised. No heat cancellations and no rain days.
Progress you can see
Fundamentals build into strategy, and strategy builds into live match play over the season.
Fundamentals, strategy, live play.
The season is built as a progression. Early weeks lock in mechanics, the middle of the season adds the soft game and court strategy, and by the end they’re playing competitive points.
- Fundamentals: grip and ready position, serve and return, forehand and backhand, footwork and court movement.
- The soft game: dinking, resets, third-shot drops and drives.
- Strategy and match play: doubles positioning, partner communication, shot selection under pressure, and closing out a game.
Ninety structured minutes.

What parents ask first.
What if my kid has never played before?
Beginners are welcome. Plenty of our kids arrive having never held a paddle, and we teach the rules, the swing and the game from zero. Skill-based grouping means a first-timer isn’t matched with kids who’ve played for years.
What we look for is attitude, not experience: a kid who listens to their coach, keeps trying when a drill gets hard, and wants to get better. This is a training program rather than an after-school drop-off, and the kids who do best are the ones who want to be on court.
My kid is younger than 11. Can they join?
We hold the 11+ minimum because the pace of the drills and the level of instruction are built for that age. A kid who isn’t ready spends 90 minutes frustrated instead of improving.
Some younger kids are already serious athletes. If yours can keep up with the drills and take real coaching, reach out and we’ll evaluate them. Otherwise, private lessons or Kids Summer Camp are the right start until they’re ready.
Do I need to stay during class?
Drop-off is fine at this age. The facility is staffed and supervised the whole time, and there’s a lounge if you’d rather stay and watch. Plenty of parents do.
What does my kid need to bring?
Athletic shoes (non-marking court shoes preferred), a water bottle and clothes they can move in. Loaner paddles and balls are available, and when they’re ready for their own paddle we can recommend one at the desk.
Can we try one session before committing to a month?
Yes. Single sessions are bookable on any listed date ($35, less with a membership). Come to one, see how it goes, then switch to the monthly plan if it’s a fit.
What happens after December?
This season runs August 17 through December 16. Spring dates go up on the booking page and on this page as they’re set, and Kids Summer Camp covers the summer break. Academy families hear about new dates first.
Give them a sport they can keep playing.
The fall season runs through December 16. Enroll monthly or try a single session first.
