Focus will be on proper grips and swing path while learning the forehand, backhand, volley and serve. Understanding of basic rules and scoring will also be taught. Each night will consist of approximately 1 hour of skill building and 30 minutes of singles and/or doubles match play. If you have taken one of our classes in the past and are unsure if this is the correct level for you, please reach out to Coach Jim Mason at jimhmason@comcast.net
