(Emma's Golf Clinic is from 1:00pm-2:00pm) Tennis starts at 2:15pm and ends at 3:15pm. Then, it's pizza time! TENNIS & PIZZA: $15 (Bring a friend for the same price.) This event is held every Saturday (starting January 2, 2010) as long as the weather is good. Advanced registration is required. Call the Tennis Shop at 954-472-3017.
Junior Tennis Classes
QuickStart Tennis is a new format to help kids age 10 and under learn and play the game. To make it easier for them, we’ve changed a few things: the court sizes, the racquet sizes, the balls, the scoring system, even the net height. The changes work, too. Because now any child between ages six and ten can start playing tennis almost immediately—even if he or she has never picked up a racquet before. And just like other popular youth sports, QuickStart stresses the importance of play and team competition. We started these programs in Summer ’08 and have been amazed at the increase in skill and fun. We have 2 age groups available: 8 and under & 10 and under. Sorry, children must be age 6+ for admission.
This program is for students who already have some tennis experience and possess adequate skills to be able to play on a full-sized tennis court with regular tennis balls. Although this program will still be play oriented, proper stroke production and footwork will be the focus. Drills will be game-based to insure optimum fun.
This program is an intensive, physically demanding program geared towards tournament players and juniors who aspire to playing college or professional tennis. There is a 2-day-per-week minimum training requirement. Students must also play tournaments on a regular basis. You must have the Tennis Director’s approval for enrollment in this program.
