Ready! Rally! Play!

7-15Y

READY! Our entry level is focused on developing the skills necessary to play the sport of tennis. Your child will have fun while developing their technique through ball striking, tracking, racket control, and footwork. RALLY! This level continues the tennis journey by focusing on rallying and ball control. Players will continue to develop technique using the ball and court size appropriate for their age and level. Players should be able to hold a simple rally and get their serve in consistently before moving on to PLAY. The PLAY level places an emphasis on the skills necessary to play a real match. Your child will continue to develop modern swing techniques as they focus on movement and ball control. Players graduating from the PLAY level will be able to demonstrate the skills necessary to play a match and are ready to move into our Junior Development classes or try out for the Competition Training program.
