Youth players
Working with kidsPatience is really the key when working with kids a lot of them have a very short attention span. You know the old saying " You can catch flies with honey than with vinegar."
Working with teenagersTeenagers are great to work with they have a specific reason why they take up the sport of tennis they either want to stand out on their team or go college bound and play Division 1 tennis.
What you need to bringThe things needed are a racquet, bottle of water and a strong desire to learn.
What I can bringBalls will be supplied, footwork cones, agility ladder, ball machine (only requested if needed) Flex bands, and jump rope.
