On April 8, 2026, I had the pleasure of visiting the Hargrave Military Academy Tennis Program—and what I experienced was truly inspiring. This is more than just a team; it is a vibrant community of motivated, energetic, and ambitious young men who grow every day—both on the court and in life.
Led by Head Tennis Coach Dr. Jim Tung, who has guided the program since 2011, Hargrave Tennis offers a structured, supportive, and high-performance environment in which student-athletes can truly thrive. Coach Tung’s passion for the game, combined with his focus on technical excellence and personal development, creates a strong and lasting foundation for success.
Working alongside him is Assistant Coach Mr. Luis Zerpa, an experienced educator with an international background and over 19 years of teaching experience. Originally from Venezuela, Mr. Zerpa brings energy, positivity, and a valuable global perspective to the program. His dedication to language development and communication skills helps students grow not only as athletes, but as confident, well-rounded individuals prepared to succeed in a global environment.
Together, they create a positive, motivating, and inspiring atmosphere—one in which every student feels supported, challenged, and encouraged to reach his full potential.
The Hargrave Tennis Team includes 23 dedicated student-athletes, forming a strong, united, and welcoming group. Whether you are an experienced competitor or just beginning your tennis journey, this program offers a unique opportunity to develop, improve, and belong.
At Hargrave, tennis is more than a sport—it is a pathway to discipline, confidence, leadership, and lifelong success.
🎾 Train. Compete. Grow. Lead.🎾 Become part of something exceptional.
