Hey kids, there is no better time to start playing tennis than now! QuickStart tennis is a new and exciting format for learning the game of tennis. USTA (United States Tennis Association) created this new format that caters directly to young beginning tennis players. To make it easier for the youngsters to learn, the QuickStart tennis format changes the net - size, the court size, the balls, the rackets and even the scoring system to make it easier for younger players. The program is designed to help children succeed but also focuses on having fun through games, relays and instruction. Participants are asked to wear appropriate shoes, bring their racket and a water bottle. A limited number of rackets will be available for those without one. Make Ups: One make-up day is scheduled each week in case of class cancellation. The make-up for each week will be on the Friday of that week at the same time and same location. , vvenin Cost .............................................................................................................................$50/person ennis Lessons Location ...................................................................................Rahn Park and Northview Park ° es 6-11 CLASS # Ages 5-6' Mon - Thur June 21 - July 1 s- Times ...............................5:00 - 5:45 pm r Location ................................Rahn Park Location.............................
