TENNIS
ACS TENNIS is made up of both Varsity Girls and Varsity Boys. Teams participate in Area 2 of the Georgia High School Association, one of the toughest areas in the state. Tennis is open to any High School students, regardless of skill level. Tennis is a sport that players can be involved in for the rest of their life. Each year our young players improve and put themselves in a position to be more successful and competitive on the High School level.
