Tennis students learn the fundamental skills necessary to play and enjoy tennis. They are taught grips and forehand and backhand swings. Students progress to the volley, the overhead shot and serve. Tennis participants enjoy the team spirit of playing doubles and the sense of personal achievement when playing singles. Tennis students gain improved coordination, self-confidence and make new friends.

Tennis classes meet once a week.
Tennis rackets and caps are available for purchase at class and online.

Each session, tennis students improve existing skills and learn new ones.

Tennis students advance from beginner level 1 to level 2 and receive a pair of white logo wrist sweatbands. Level 3 students receive a pair of red logo wrist sweatbands, and level 4 a pair of black logo wrist sweatbands.

Perfect attendance is rewarded at the end of each session. Tennis students missing a lesson may take a make-up lesson and still receive the perfect attendance award! To make up a missed lesson, students take 2 classes back-to-back prior to the end of the session. Students may take the class prior to their normal class time or take the class following their normal class time. Please see the instructor for more information.
