It is truly a testament to their hard work and commitment that they have grown to become one of the premier junior academies in the nation.

"Every year when I am at the National Tournaments I see members of the UTA Staff. The reason I see them so much is that they have so many good juniors at the National events. As a staff they know how to develop players into college bound prospects and potential pro players. They know how to take a player from one plateau to another. I am extremely impressed with their operation and how organized they are with their junior programs. They have my vote as one of the top, if not the top, junior programs in the country."
