Message
to the Parents: Through
my experience as a coach, player, and parent, I hope to create
a fun environment for
all kids to improve at tennis. On Monday’s and Wednesday’s
I plan to have players who are tournament level players that
want to be pushed and coached in an aggressive but encouraging
manner. On Tuesday’s and Thursday’s we look forward
to accommodating a wider range of players, from beginners to
advanced. Tennis is a very technical sport. It is very challenging
to learn new strokes in a group environment. Group situations
are more for learning strategy and improving skills that you
have already developed as a player. Footwork and general stroke
mechanics are taught, but for a player to learn a new habit
can be very time consuming and requires one-on-one attention.
I would encourage all parents who are serious about their children’s
tennis development, to consider combining both Jr. Academy
clinics with private lessons! This undoubtedly will have the
optimum effect on their tennis game.
