youth Group programs
INFORMATION
Whether children are beginners, intermediate or advanced players, this program will improve their game and help them get more enjoyment from tennis. Our tennis programs focus on skill refinement as well as practice and match play to develop consistent, well-rounded tennis players.
We break down the fundamental skills of tennis through easily understood games and exercises to help improve the athlete’s overall coordination and technique. Players learn proper grips, footwork, strokes, volleys and serves during a series of drills designed to teach skills in a fun and dynamic way. In addition to developing a love for tennis, athletes will learn the rules and etiquette that make tennis such an exciting game to play.
If you would like to have your child to tryout a class as a new player, you can. We offer an opportunity for those who are not sure if they will enjoy our program. Please register for a class you wish to participate, at the end of the class, if you decide that it’s not for you – we will be refund. If you decide to continue with our program, the tryout class will be counted as one of your sessions.
