Kids Programs: Ages 3+

Barbosa Tennis specializes in working with children, starting at age 3. Our programs are designed to help players of all ages reach their full potential as well as develop a love for the game and an understanding of its rules. With a great attention to detail, your child will develop correct and consistent strokes which will be necessary for playing matches. All children will be placed in a group that best suits their skill level while also providing a challenging environment.

TYPES OF CLASSES


All players will fall into one the 3 following groups:

3 & 4 YEAR OLDS:
Beginners: This class will have a maximum of 2 children and last 30-minutes. The goal of this class is to get a beginning 3 & 4 year old accustomed to playing tennis and used to the class environment. The smaller class size offers minimal distractions from other kids and the shorter class time will prevent them from tiring out.

Some Experience: This is a 1-hour class with a maximum of 4 children. These classes will focus equally in providing a basic introduction of tennis strokes as well as furthering the development of coordination and motor skills. It is recommended that children have the experience of the beginner class before joining this class.

Advanced: 3 & 4 year olds who are able to play at an advanced level will be able to play with older kids. Please register for the Recreational or Competitive player classes.

RECREATIONAL PLAYERS:
Recommended for children ages 5+, these are players that are starting with tennis for the first time or doing tennis as an activity. Classes are available for either 1-hour or for 90-minutes, depending on the age and skill level of the child. Classes have a maximum of 6 children. 

COMPETITIVE PLAYERS:
Players that are either playing matches or would like to play matches, including tournaments, in the near future. It is recommended that these players be registered for a minimum of 2 classes a week in order to fully develop their skills. Classes are 90-minutes in length. Class size is limited to a maximum of 4 or 6 players, depending on the level of play of the group.
