Prosper's recreation tennis classes, which run on school district courts on weeknights and Saturday mornings, would continue with the same split of registration money if Prosper council members sign off on a renewed contract Tuesday, Oct. 13. It sits on the consent agenda.
The contract is with Can Do Racquet Sports, a Carrollton-based instructor. The town takes registrations, keeps 30% of the revenue and pays the instructor the other 70%, according to the staff memo.
How much money is involved
Last year the town paid the instructor $110,660.91 and kept $47,426.13, the memo says. For the 2026-27 budget year, staff estimate registrations will bring in about $153,343. Under the 70-30 split, $107,340 would go to Can Do Racquet Sports and about $46,003 would stay with the town.
Who plays, and where
The memo describes a tennis program for children ages 5 to 14 and for adults, held throughout the year. The signed instructor agreement attached to the item lists tennis and pickleball, for both kids and adults.
Classes use courts at Rogers, Reynolds, Rushing and Lakewood, according to the agreement. The town's joint use agreement with Prosper ISD lets it use the district's tennis courts at no cost and allows the town to charge participants a reasonable fee.
The agreement sets spring 2027 sessions from March 22 to May 31, from 5 to 8:30 p.m. on weekdays and 10 a.m. to noon on Saturdays. Families signing up more than one child get a discount of up to $5 per additional child.
The instructor sets class sizes and fees, subject to review by the town, and all lead instructors and substitutes must pass a town background check before a program starts.
