Youth Fundamentals Group Lessons
Program Overview:
Our Fundamentals Group Lessons introduce youth to the lifelong game of tennis in a fun, positive environment. We focus on teaching stroke fundamentals, building consistency, and introducing rallying skills and game rules—all while nurturing a love for the game.
Training areas include:
- Stroke technique and consistency
- Ball control and rallying skills
- Fun, collaborative drills and games
- Game structure and rules of play
We emphasize positive youth development, helping children to enjoy the game and process of learning whilst gaining life skills through sport.
Coaching Team:
Tenicity’s coaches deliver the lessons under the leadership of Harsh Mankad, a former NCAA national singles champion. They use Tenicity’s fundamental skills framework to plan lessons and adapt activities to the players in each group.
Program Skill Levels:
New and returning players are welcome. Coaches group players by age and current skills when possible.
