Tennis


On television, the sport of Tennis appears effortless to its onlookers. Three years ago Matthew and I signed up to learn how to play tennis. It was supposed to be two different classes, but there were no other adults and I was left with no other choice but to learn with a group of 8 and 9 year olds. It was at first embarrassing as they learned faster than I but Matthew had the most fun laughing at me.

Picking a tennis coach:

What are you looking for -  Advanced tuition? Social development? General fitness?
  • Do you need to buy a tennis racket prior to your child joining the class? Ask coach before buying
  • Are there any specific clothes they need to wear? This will depend on the venue and the coach.



Benefits of Tennis

Tennis is a great sport for developing hand-eye coordination, gross motor control through court movement and ball striking, balance and body coordination, all the while building acceleration, speed, leg strength, agility and flexibility. Tennis also promotes overall good health in children through improved bone strength, density and a robust immune system.
