Tennis TENNIS SHOP CLOSURE The Tennis Shop will be closed Thursday, September 12th through Sunday, September 15th. All clinics will be canceled during this time.
TENNIS CLINIC SCHEDULE Beginning Labor Day, Monday, September 2nd, all clinics will revert to the regular schedule. Please see the correct schedule below.
NEW RACQUET The Wilson Clash has been one of the hottest selling racquets this year and for good reason. The combination of a very comfortable sweet spot and maneuverability has produced a unique feel. But Wilson has just improved the experience with two new versions, the Clash 108 and the Clash 100L. Both of these models are great options for the dedicated beginner or intermediate players who want a versatile and very arm-friendly racquet. Be sure to stop by the Tennis Center to try out these new racquets.
MONDAY Daufuskie Doubles Drills 10:00 am - 12:00 am
TUESDAY Match Play Drills Back to Basics
9:00 am – 10:00 am 10:00 am – 11:00 am
THURSDAY Intermediate Drills
10:00 am – 11:00 am
KEEP IT SIMPLE The volley should be simple and foolproof. Just stick your racquet out and hit the ball back over the net. But it’s not that easy. You have to contend with the incoming ball, the position of your opponents, and your target. Keep the following points in mind and your volleys will become better: 1. Recognize the ball you are about to hit is descending. Therefore, you must hit with a slightly opened racquet face to have the ball clear the net. 2. The power on the volley will come from your weight transfer - the lower body moving forward - more than the upper body hitting the ball. 3. Relax your grip. You will find it much easier to center the racquet in the path of the ball when your arm is relaxed and able to make small adjustments in its position.
