Jack Stanton
Jack Stanton began his tennis career teaching a group of neighborhood kids with a cardboard box of balls when he was 14. “They did mostly anything I asked, so long as I promised dodge ball at the end. I’ve since chosen more suitable bribes,” he says. His career has taken him to commercial and private country clubs in Massachusetts, Michigan, and Pennsylvania; rising through the ranks to become a director of tennis before starting his own teaching business, Natural Tennis. As a player, Jack has held high sectional rankings from juniors to seniors, having been the number 3 doubles player in Middle States. He also played an undefeated season at number one in singles and doubles in USTA 5.0 in his late 30s. Jack loves being the guide who gets to see the joy of discovery in his students. His clinics are a balance of physicality and meaningful instruction. His privates are customized to the student’s goals and capabilities. Jack is very excited to expand his role in his second season here at KG.
