HOT SHOTS
Are you looking for your kids to have fun, whilst being taught general skills such as agility, flexibility, balance and speed, as well as being introduced to a wonderful sport that they can Come Play for life? Then our Tennis Hot Shots program is for you.
Come Play, using low compression balls, smaller nets with smaller tennis racquets to allow the kids to have fun and rally in their first lesson. As the kids grow and improve, the ball compression, racquet size and court size also increase. Activities include ball striking, tennis based games, coordination, agility drills, rallying and finally match play. The real emphasis throughout these lessons is for the kids to have fun while still learning the basics of tennis. Serving, rallying and scoring are the key markers of the Hotshot program.
