Mission Statement

This junior program is designed for those juniors who have yet learned how to rally.  It's mission is to give all juniors the necessary fundamentals and skill sets needed to participate in matchplay and/or competition. The curriculum is a progressive one using court positions to properly teach the techniques of all strokes :

"As the kids get better the court gets bigger".

Overview


The program incorporates:
* Techniques for the "Modern Game"
* The use of mini-nets and graudated levels of tennis balls for the munchies (5-7)
* Training Props
(cones, agility ladders, targets, etc)
* 6 to 1 Student to instructor ratio
(STRICTLY ENFORCED)
*Highly trained professional staff

As soon as a junior can display that he/she can rally from the baseline and are committed to tennis, they are ready to now learn "how to play" in our Ripper Training Academy.
