Our junior tennis program is dedicated to developing a passion in young players to become better tennis players. Each class has two or three objectives on which students focus. Rewards and other incentives are included in our program to help motivate kids to achieve their objectives.
Should a child take group or private lessons?
Group lessons are valuable because kids can hit with peers of similar ability and form or strengthen friendships with other kids. Private lessons can supplement group lessons by giving personal attention to improving stroke and footwork mechanics. Players can join a group any time as long as they are at the same skill level as the group they want to join. Players who demonstrate more advanced skill levels can "move up” to that group.
