These sessions focus extensively on proper tennis technique and the development of competitive playing skills. The maximum student to instructor ratio will be 6:1. This means lots of attention, lots of instruction, and lots of hitting. These sessions are perfect for the kids who want to compete and see how far they can take their games. In order to beat the midday heat, we’ll combine our time on the courts with time in the pool. You may arrange to have lunches provided by the Pool snack bar, or your kids may bring their own lunches.
