GILFORD — Homeschooled children in the Lakes Region, Nashua and Seacoast are learning tennis thanks to a new program launched by a Gilford couple with funding from USTA New England and USTA New Hampshire and support from Advantage Kids.
Jolie Hassler and her husband Rick launched the program at Gilford Hills Tennis & Fitness Club on March 9, the first of six weekly lessons for more than 100 homeschoolers in the state at the Gilford club and also at Longfellow Tennis & Swim Club in Nashua and Great Bay Athletic Club in Newmarket.
After the first two weeks of lessons, Hassler says she has a long waiting list for additional sessions and has been asked by homeschoolers around the state to bring the program to their area.
The Homeschool Helpers are a Gilford, New Hampshire based 501C3 Nonprofit Corporation focused on providing financial, educational and physical support and instruction for Homeschoolers and underprivileged children. We’ve brought together a passionate group of educators whose mission is to enable all children to have the opportunity of education and sports, regardless of financial or physical status.
Jolie Hassler has been educating and working with children for over 20 years. To assist children with education and jobs, Jolie became a certified Life Guard Instructor. Jolie has trained and certified over 500 children as Lifeguards including CPR and basic medical training, enabling them to obtain jobs and enjoy outdoor physical activity. Jolie is committed to helping underprivileged children so they can enjoy schooling and physical education.
About 10 years ago, Jolie created and started a homeschool in Gilford, New Hampshire to assist children that had problems mainstreaming, competing and socializing in the public schools. Jolie has been teaching all forms of education and physical activities to children ever since. Many underprivileged and homeschoolers have limited access to physical activities. To assist in physical activities for the children, Jolie became s a certified Tennis instructor and obtained funding from the USTA(United States Tennis Association) to teach children tennis. To assist with this phenomenal program she enlisted, her husband, Rick Hassler, another certified instructor, three Tennis clubs, public courts and has taught over 250 children a sport that they can enjoy, compete and play for a lifetime.
Jolie is committed to not let any child fall between the cracks and be forgotten. One special 10 year old walked up to her and hugged her and said, “Thank you, this is the first sport I have ever played.” This is what Homeschool Helpers are about, helping all children with sport, education and enjoying life with others.
