With years of dedicated experience, Coach Zeze de Moura has helped shape the junior tennis landscape in Houston and beyond. What began as a passionate program at the Houston City Club has evolved into one of the city's most respected junior tennis programs in Houston.

Founded with a vision to nurture young talent, Z Junior Academy has become a leader in junior tennis development. Under Coach Zeze’s guidance, we’ve proudly reached major milestones:

• Record summer camp attendance of 845 kids in 2015

• Texas State Championship for 10 and Under Junior Team Tennis in 2016

• TCCA Championship titles in both 2024 and 2025

• SPC Boys Championship win in 2025—the first for St. John’s School in over 31 years

Our program has been instrumental in developing young players into champions, many of whom have gone on to compete at the college level.

In February 2025, we moved our tennis program to the Blanton Tennis Center at St. John’s School, a state-of-the-art facility that allows us to continue delivering high-quality coaching in an exceptional environment.
