We are now offering Youth Tennis programs all year long, indoor & outdoor!
NO WINTER OR SPRING TENNIS THIS SEASON!
Fall Youth Tennis (Ages K - 9th grade)
K - 2nd grade tennis - This is an introductory class. The child will learn forehands, backhands, volleys, and how to start the rally. The class will be played on a 36-foot court, with a small net, red balls, and 21-inch racquets. No racquets no problem, they will be provided.
3rd - 5th grade tennis - This a beginner/intermediate class. The child will learn forehands, backhands, volleys, serves and how to start the point. The last day of class we will have a mini round robin so the kids can experience how to play tennis and keep score. No racquets no problem, they will be provided.
6th - 9th grade tennis – Beginner/Intermediate/Advanced levels welcome. The practice will be geared to the ability of the teenager. The hope is, after 4 lessons to focus on match play, correct score keeping and being able to call the ball in/out.
