Berkshire Moonball Tennis Academy is Ready to Serve the Berkshires!

By Berkshire Moonball Tennis Academy May 26, 2021

Berkshire Moonball Tennis Academy (BMTA) is a community-based organization founded in 2021 in Berkshire County, Massachusetts.  BMTA aims not only to introduce children to the game of tennis, but also to provide them with high-level coaching and invaluable sportsmanship lessons.  A “moonball” is a high lob in tennis.  Here at BMTA, we aim high.


Our mission is to promote the growth of local youth through the game of tennis.  We strive to increase the number of children playing tennis in our community while providing them with the highest level of sports coaching and encouraging their personal growth through sportsmanship, competitive spirit, and hard work.



We Value:

  • Providing the children of our community the opportunity to learn the game of tennis, especially those who may not otherwise have access to a similar high-quality program
  • Contributing to the social-emotional learning of each child who participates
  • Working hard 100% of the time
  • Respecting one another, the game, and the spaces we play in
  • Cultivating the community’s trust


Registration is now open for our 2021 Summer Program, a three-week session at Herberg Middle School in Pittsfield, MA.  The program will run Monday through Friday, July 19th through August 6th, 3-6 p.m. and is best suited for children of all skill levels (ages 7-15). Our coaching team comes from Williams College and they are incredibly experienced with all aspects of teaching tennis and the related life skills that complement sportsmanship and hard work.


Your child should attend if:

Your child seeks to learn tennis or elevate his or her tennis skills,

Your child would have fun in a focused tennis program, and

You want your child to be part of a tennis program contributing to social-emotional learning.


Space is strictly limited to 30 children, and all participants will receive a free racquet.
