Judy Adams

Judy Adams brings an accomplished competitive background and a lifelong passion for teaching to the court. A former Guyana representative at Junior Wimbledon and winner of more than 100 singles and doubles tournaments, she works with junior players in High Point’s pre-junior development, Future Stars, and Competitive programs. She also teaches beginner and advanced beginner pickleball.

Judy’s approach centers on her longstanding enjoyment of working with young people and supporting their development. Her commitment extends beyond lessons: she often attends her students’ tournaments to follow their progress and support them in competition.

Born in British Guiana, now Guyana, Judy Adams discovered tennis at an early age through her father, who built a modified court in their backyard. That introduction sparked a lifelong involvement in the sport as both a competitor and an instructor.

After attending the Ursuline Convent in Georgetown, Judy continued her education at Southlands Teachers Training College in Wimbledon, England. Following graduation, she taught at an elementary school in South London before relocating to Kingston, Jamaica, where she taught mathematics to middle and high school students.

During her competitive tennis career, Judy won well over 100 singles and doubles tournaments. She represented Guyana twice at Junior Wimbledon, earned “Sportswoman of the Year” recognition in Guyana for both tennis and table tennis, and was a triple champion at the Antillean Indoor in Kingston. She also achieved a No. 3 ranking in her women’s singles age division in Texas.
