The Blue Ball stage is an introduction into tennis basics while further developing your childs’ fundamental perceptual motor skills and social development. Students will play with modified equipment, including larger low compression balls, mini nets, modified racquets/nets to encourage sensory and motor development such as coordination, balance and strength all in a fun and engaging environment.

We encourage parents/ carers to attend the sessions with their child.

Duration: 30min class

The Red Ball stage is for tennis newcomers. We introduce kids to tennis basics as well as a focus on fitness and co-ordination. We use modified equipment to help your kid master the techniques and start hitting the ball like a pro. The ball is larger and has less compression than a yellow ball meaning it bounces at the optimum height for the student to develop the proper technique. Additionally the students learn on a modified court with lower nets.

There are 3 levels in the Red Stage:

• Red Foundation (recommended for new students)

• Red Intermediate

• Red Matchplay (developing tournament skills)

Duration: 30min class

Groups Size: Max 8

After mastering the Red Ball stage, the students move on to Orange Ball where they continue to develop their technique. In our Orange Stage, students play on regular sized court with a shortened baseline and use 50% compression orange balls, which travel a little faster than the Blue or Red balls. This helps build speed on the court and pushes the student a little harder. The recommended racquet size for this stage is 23-25 inches.

There are three levels in the Orange Stage:

• Orange Foundation (recommended for new students)

• Orange Intermediate

• Orange Matchplay (developing tournament skills)

Duration: 45min class

Groups Size: Max 8
