About the Program: AFS offers two seasons of tennis each academic year – in the fall and the spring. Historically at AFS and amongst our peer schools, the fall season has been for those players who identify as female and the spring season for those who identify as male. Gender diverse and non-binary individuals will be eligible to play in matches during the season in which they feel most comfortable doing so. Seven to ten players generally comprise the Varsity Fall Tennis ladder, competing against other schools in a 3-singles & 2-doubles format. AFS Girls (now Fall) Tennis is a charter member of the Friends Schools League, earning their first League win in May of 1982. The season begins with pre-season training in late August and concludes with post-season play in late October.
