Description:

Introductory & intermediate program for 8 & 9 year olds and graduating U7 level 2 players. Players will be mixed and matched with different partners while practicing coordination and ball skills such as softly lofting to a partner so they can bump the ball up and eventually return it back across the net. As forehand and backhand rally skills begin to develop game playing will be introduced. Serving and volleying skills will also be introduced as players’ progress through the course.

Intermediate players can already rally, friendly competition will be an integral part of this class and will be used to introduce advanced tactics such as playing to a weakness, hitting to the backhand, attacking, and moving the opponent around. Technique is taught as a means to control the ball to implement such tactics.
