Please let us know if you plan to come both Tue and Thu, or just once a week, etc. Our goal is 4-6 players per coach - so we can add a second/third coach when we get higher numbers.
- We provide the balls, and if you don't have a racquet yet, we have loaner racquets and at your first session, we can tell you what size to purchase when you're ready. (generally $20 at Walmart/Sports Academy/etc.)
- We separate the 4-5 yrs and 6-7 yr olds. Our 4-5s use the Large Red Tennis Balls with a small tennis net. Our 6-7s use orange dot balls and the standard tennis net.
