The Springs Family Y offers specialized Adult Tennis Programs. This all-abilities program is all about fun, friends, fitness and learning a lifetime sport. Whether you’re attempting to hit your first forehand, playing your first match, or preparing for a tournament, we have the right class for you.
Adult Classes
Beginner to 3.0 Tennis:
Beginner to 3.0 (USTA rating) This class is designed for beginners or players who have played before, but need to cover the basic of ground stroke formation forehand/backhand, serves, volleying, lobs, and basic rules. We will also cover score keeping and making sure players are self-sufficient as they play tennis with others. You can expect to have tennis drills, rallies with other class members, and some games as part of class.
Intermediate/Advanced 3.0-4.0:
This class is for players who are rated (self) as 3.0 – 4.0 players. We will tune up your ground strokes, volleys, lobs, serves, and basic game strategy. The course will focus mostly on developing existing skills and fine tuning strategies that lead to successful shot making and fun/competitive levels of tennis play. You can expect to do some drills, but most of the class will focus on hitting lessons and feedback during rallies and games with other class members. This is a great class if you want to improve your game and get ready for some tennis tournaments this year.
