Sports keep our kids busy and out of trouble. The more sports teams there are, the better it is!

Combining boys and girls tennis is a ridiculous idea. Already, very few students can make the team. This will cut those already small numbers by half.

combining the two is a terrible idea, completely unfair to all parties! Even more absurd considering tennis is one of the few sports without JV

Why would you combine girls and boys if it means less opportunity for each in this sport? Keep them separate!

The changes being made are not fair to MCPS girls tennis players.

I am in favor of keeping girls and boys tennis teams separate.

Each team deserves its own coach, own full-size team, and own season - having to share will diminish both for no good reason.

so wrong to shut down so many girls from playing tennis ,empty courts in moco absurd ,an insult to great strides we have made in girl equity

During the 2016-2017 academic year, some high school tennis teams were required to share their courts with other teams, due to high school expansion projects that sacrificed previously-existing tennis courts. Clearly, this shortsighted plan to have girls and boys play their tennis seasons concurrently will undermine the success of both tennis programs and adversely affect the amount of practice time and coaching that tennis teams, girls and boys, currently enjoy.

Keep the team in the fall. They show great effort and practice hard, it's so incredibly unfair to push it back.

Keep girls and boys tennis in different seasons! We have the same coach and court space would be super limited

Moving the girls to spring creates a major conflict with limited court space and will ultimately destroy the program.

There just isn't enough courts to have the girls and boys the same season.

it would disrupt some of the girls original schedules and it is more favorable to be played during the fall
