Junior Tennis documentary coming soon (no, not that one)
Still no word on the release date of the Jim Courier-backed documentary on junior tennis, tentatively titled The Zoo which was filmed throughout 2005 and culminated in Kalamazoo that August.
But there is another documentary on its way, called 50,000 Balls, that focuses on junior tennis from the 12-and-under perspective. It was filmed last spring and summer, and although there isn't a release date yet, there is a website where you can view a trailer and get other information regarding the film. To visit the website, click here.
Hoop Dreams set the bar for sports documentaries awfully high, but tennis has plenty of inherent drama too, and I'm glad there are entrepreneurs willing to take a shot at getting it on film.

Colette, I talked to one of the camera men that was at the Boca Future. He said they are finishing up in 2 weeks and plan to get it out by the spring.
I just spoke to someone today who saw a big billboard for the documentary here in Los Angeles...
