10 and Under Tennis, using the Quick Start Tennis play format, is structured for kids to learn tennis and rally and play quickly in a way that is both enjoyable and rewarding. Tailoring equipment and courts so that they are sized appropriately for kids makes the game more accessible, and more fun, by allowing kids to get involved right from the start. It eliminates waiting on long lines to hit the ball, and the frustration kids feel at not being able to rally.
Patient, age-appropriate instruction that will have the older beginner rallying in no time. Each day starts with the basics of stroke production: ground strokes, volleys and serves. As your child builds confidence and competence we challenge them with more difficult drills and games, along with the rules of the game, sportsmanship and overall athleticism.
Experienced players are arranged by ability, and all instruction, drills and games are tailored to challenge even the most advanced player. The focus is on preparing for high school team tennis and tournaments, with the emphasis on point play (doubles and singles), strategy and match play. Advanced players get plenty of chances to hit and play with our experienced staff.
