SAFE PLAY CERTIFIED (SPC) TENNIS DIRECTOR: Sophie Herman SPC COACHES: Kate Butler & Shay Kelly
BEGINNER TENNIS Introduces tennis to children based on age, physical size and ability. By modifying the court dimensions (36 feet or 60 feet in length), using appropriately sized tennis racquets and slower bouncing balls, beginners progress rapidly. Children who have progressed to rallying 4 or 5 times over the net with the red felt balls on the 36' court will be advanced to the orange ball 60' court. With success on the 60' court, they will progress to the full yellow ball 72' court. ALL children will be introduced to game play. They will learn simple scoring, match play, & good sportsmanship.
