High 5's (5-8 years)

This class teaches the fundamentals of tennis to very young beginners. Proper technique is emphasized along with racquet control, cooperation and movement. Lessons are incorporated into fun games to help children stay focused and interested while learning to play. Students may sign up for more than one session and need to bring a racquet. Instructors reserve the right to move children to the appropriate level.

Rallies (8-11 years)

This is for both beginner and intermediate players ready to play on a slightly larger court. Classes are designed to continue building athletic skills while learning or refining the skills necessary to serve, rally and score. Players will learn proper technique and maintain that technique during point and match play.

Hitters (12-15 years)

Intermediate level teenage players can progress their skills in a fun
and competitive environment. Participants must have prior experience and aspirations of playing Jr. High and High School tennis. Stroke development, footwork, doubles and singles strategies will be taught. Lessons at Ann Morrison Park will have match play on Thursdays.
