Description

Designed specifically for elementary school-age students who are new to tennis and want to learn the game in a fun, age-appropriate setting. Taught by the USTA award-winning Santa Monica Tennis Collective, players learn the fundamentals of tennis through drills and games using orange-ball equipment.

Players will develop movement, coordination, and the basics of stroke production, including forehands, backhands, volleys, and serves, while building a strong foundation for continued progression.
