Youth & Junior Tennis Clinics
Youth & Junior Tennis Clinics
Our certified tennis professionals use the most current teaching methodologies to help young players progress through the Youth & Junior Tennis Pathways starting with Red Ball to Yellow Ball. The long-term goal of the Red, Orange and Green Ball clinics is to give young players a sound fundamental skill set base and get them playing Tennis! We offer classes that welcome students of any age and skill level to participate in a fun tennis learning environment while they work to improve. For more information, contact any of our tennis professionals.
To take advantage of Healthplex’s competitive pricing, sessions must be bought in full (players can start mid-session for a pro-rated price) or the “Pay per Play” rates apply. Each clinic level is offered at least twice per week. This offers a chance for a player to “make-up” clinics they might miss throughout the session.
