Hot Shots Tennis – (3-12yrs)
Hot Shots is tennis for kids.
It’s a program designed to help every child, no matter their age or ability, jump in and start playing tennis.
Hot Shots is a fun and inclusive program for children from 3 to 12 years of age.
With our team of coaches Hot Shots is played on smaller courts with modified equipment, including lighter racquets, lower nets and low-compression balls that don’t bounce too high.
Players are guided through progressive development stages, with an underlying focus on fun and enjoyment. The fundamentals of tennis are introduced through drills, games and rallies while developing students technical and tactical skills as they progress through the levels.
Our friendly and enthusiastic coaches are extremely excited and passionate in delivering the Hots Shots Program.
