CARDINAL SWIM AND TENNIS CLUB
SUMMER 2015 JUNIOR TENNIS PROGRAM (AGES 11-14)
The Junior Development Program at Cardinal Swim & Tennis will offer junior players ages 11-14 a USTA approved instructional format that is fun, encouraging and productive. The program will strive to make tennis accessible, educate players in proper technique and strategy and provide continuous motivation for students to reach their potential. All programs are designed to be fun and challenging. Our program will allow the junior players to be challenged yet gain skills through this process and allow them to learn to “play” at a more rapid rate. The instruction will be group or team-based and directed by dedicated & certified professionals, with all sessions having low student-to-pro ratios. The program is made up of 4 groups, which will be formed at the discretion of the Pro by age & ability.
DESCRIPTION OF GROUP
This “Future Stars" program is designed for our younger and beginner to intermediate players ages 11-14. Our "FUTURE STARS" will use standard 78' courts and Green Dot low-compression felt USTA approved balls.
Practices will consist of warm-up, match play, match play assistance, instruction and rules & regulations. Rackets used in this program include those 25” – 27” according to size of the player (Pro will advise on this).
Our main focus will be placed on technique, stroke development and most importantly – MATCH PLAY. Attention will be placed on serving and improving rallying skills to enable players to participate in USTA Junior Team Tennis, USTA Tournaments and other leagues. Our group size is limited to 8:1 ratios of coaches to students with a minimum of 3 students needed to hold a clinic session. Our junior players will enjoy learning the game in having fun and developing strokes and fundamentals that will last them a lifetime!! We want the kids playing as soon as possible and loving the game!!
