In 2026, the Sabers tennis team will look to their talented youth, led by the most seasoned of veteran leadership.

 

As they did in 2024, Spence will again rely on its balanced play between both singles and doubles.  As long been the tradition of Spence tennis, versatile players capable of playing either singles or doubles have added depth and strength throughout the Spence line-up, leading the program to be one of the most consistently high achieving AAIS Tennis teams over the past 5 seasons.

 

In 2018, the Sabers took the AAIS Tennis tournament by storm, entering as the No. 6 seed and upsetting the No. 3 and No. 2 seeds on their way to finishing as tournament runner-up. In 2018, Spence was undefeated at the No. 1 singles position for the first time in more than five years. 

 

Regular season matches include singles and doubles play, and athletes will be expected to employ high level of competitive strategies in all forms of match play.

 

The team practices and competes at various venues throughout NYC. As is the case with all of our varsity teams, tennis is a Monday-through-Friday commitment. Athletes are required to supply their own racquets and to wear tennis court shoes.
