ADULT CLINICS

  • TENNIS FITNESS

    How many balls can you hit in an hour? Tennis Fitness is a fun, group activity featuring drills to give players of all abilities an ultimate, high energy workout. Each drill is designed to be fun, challenging and gets you moving. Emphasis is on raising your heart rate into the aerobic training zone, not stroke execution. If you are looking for a new way to get in shape and burn calories, you must try Tennis Fitness! Come ready to sweat! This program is not open to beginners.

  • STROKE CLINIC

    The Stroke Clinic is a perfect program for those players that have already completed the Beginner Tennis 201 program or for those novice/intermediate players that are just looking to practice all aspects of their game. This is not a beginner program. Each week a new stroke is analyzed. An emphasis is placed upon technique and rallying skills.

  • TENNIS 101

    In this beginner program you will receive instruction on the two basic strokes - forehand and backhand - with the goal of learning rally consistently. There will be considerable emphasis on hand-eye co-ordination exercises and basic body movements. You will be introduced to the serve, volley, scoring system and rules of the game.

  • TENNIS 201

    This novice program continues where Tennis 101 left off. All core fundamental strokes will be practiced. Emphasis will be placed on rallying skills and point play or games. You are encouraged to participate in the Novice Round Robin on Tuesday nights. Please see the round robin information.

  • PRIVATE DOUBLES LESSONS
