You’d never believe tennis could be so fun! ANTS tennis class will be an encouraging team environment with positive coaching, learning, and fun tennis games for your children. Our program welcomes all new and experienced players of all skill levels, even those who have never touched a racket. Our approach is to teach the FUNdamentals of tennis through individual hand-eye coordination, partner activities, and fun team tennis games. Using modified equipment that has been adopted by the USTA (smaller nets and rackets and easier to hit balls), our program allows your child to explore tennis at the right pace. In class we’ll focus on building healthy habits, team camaraderie, and good sportsmanship on and off the court.
