Stephen Peng is the most improved junior player coming out of the Glen Head Racquet Club’s ALPS tennis program. Prior to joining the ALPS program, Stephen had never received more than one game in any United States Tennis Association junior match. As of September 2008 after playing in the ALPS program for over a year, Stephen was ranked number four in the Boy’s 14-Under Rankings on Long Island, Level 1.
Stephen believes that the ALPS program at Glen Head Racquet Club has helped him to get into top shape and thinks this has been critical to his high rate of improvement. In addition, Peng attributes all the personalized attention players get in the program to his rapid rise in the rankings. Stephen is particularly appreciative of all the help he has gotten from Carl Barnett, the innovator of the ALPS program and Stephen’s main coach at the club. Peng played varsity tennis as a freshman for Syosset High School and looks forward to the upcoming season.
