During a visit to the Steinm\u00fchle campus, Hans-J\u00fcrgen Schneider, chairman of the Marburg-Biedenkopf Tennis Association, found ideal conditions for tennis: The boarding school maintains the courts and thus the necessary infrastructure. Schneider\u2019s suggestion to get young Steinm\u00fchlen students excited about tennis was well received by Principal Bj\u00f6rn Gemmer. The school then surveyed interest in the \u201cwhite sport\u201d among elementary school students and those in grades 5 and 6. <\/p>\n

The call for participants generated such a strong response that, since the beginning of September, 16 elementary school students have been training on Wednesdays from 12:30 p.m. to 1 p.m., followed by 19 fifth- and sixth-graders from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. Three coaches are available to work with the children: Patrick Voy\u00e9 is provided by the tennis association, and former Steinm\u00fchlen students Nina and Tom Horn assist him. <\/p>\n

The opportunity to use the tennis courts for school clubs is yet another sign of the successful collaboration between the school and the Steinm\u00fchle boarding school. The administrators at Steinm\u00fchle\u2014and, of course, Hans-J\u00fcrgen Schneider as the initiator\u2014hope that the students will enjoy tennis so much that they will join a tennis club in the local tennis district and make the sport a lifelong hobby. <\/p>\n
