Free Kids Tennis on Saturdays in May and June
“Kids Tennis” is a free program for members and non-members ages 4 to 12 years. The program utilizes child-size racquets, soft balls and small nets. Young children have fun participating in a variety of games and drills. The purpose of “Kids Tennis” is to facilitate the gradual development of a young child’s tennis skills in order to improve his/her overall tennis skills faster. In this way, he/she transitions to the regular court with greater ease and success. No registration or prior tennis experience is required. All the necessary equipment is provided by the club.
10:00am to 10:45am Ages 4-7 years
10:45am to 11:30am Ages 8-12 years
The Stratford Tennis Club gratefully accepts any donations to help purchase and maintain this equipment, so that every interested child has the opportunity to learn to play tennis regardless of membership!
