THE MORALES FAMILY

Edith, Anastasia, Eric (holding) Aurora Morales

Eric Morales & Rick Wu purchased the Bloomfield Racquet Club on June 17th 2004. It was then transformed into the Bloomfield Tennis Academy.

Eric was raised in a tennis family, he started playing at the (late) age of 4yrs. His father Wilson Morales insisted that Eric be the Best that he can be. Eric was Nationally ranked as a Junior player and also played Professionally from the age of 15 and on. Eric believes that his personal achievements should not matter in the eyes of his students. His daily tennis interactions and experiences teach him new things every day.

He is a great coach not only because of What he can teach you but because of How he teaches you. He never gives up! He will tie you to the net post, or to a chair or even put your neck into a brace just to break that bad habit. Eric has also been called one of the toughest coaches around (until you see him teach a PeeWee class!). His time is in much demand at BTA as well as on the Men's and Women's Professional Tour. He travels both as a coach and also at times as a player. "If I don't keep up with the top players out there then I can't possibly teach my club players to the best of my abilities."

His standards far exceed all other because he will make you the BEST that YOU can be. "Sometimes there's nothing more real then having Eric serve a ball to you at 130 mph, it just makes our every week doubles match that much more fun!" BTA club member.

Rick is an avid and passionate tennis player; he is always up for a match! Rick , before the tennis club was a successful business man in New York as well as parts of China. His dream had always been to own his own tennis club. After a lifetime of hard work he is living his dream alongside Eric and is working hard to make BTA into New England's First Full Service Tennis Academy!

Edith Morales, wife of Eric, is the General Manger and Tournament Director at BTA. She is also a passionate tennis player, but wishes she had more time to play! Between running her own business; Pretzels With A Twist, raising two beautiful girls and UConn as well as overseeing the CJTL; time is just hard to find! Edith lives by this quote "You're given one Day, you cannot trade that day & you cannot go back to edit that day, make your mark in this world by being happy & by doing it your way!"
