Spark Junior Tennis (ages 5-6)
SJT is one of Pittsburgh’s only junior tennis programs to be exclusively focused on developing players ages ten and under. We see a player’s early years on court as not only the chance to develop a rock-solid athletic and technical foundation, but also the time when they fall in love with the game for life. We use cutting edge methodologies from all over the world to move each child from pre-rally to able-to-rally while at the same time keeping the environment exciting, accessible, and productive. Learn the fundamental movement and tracking skills required to become a fantastic tennis player in this weekly class. Time will be spent developing each student’s ABCs (agility, balance, and coordination) and ball sending and receiving skills, all essential components of developing the ability to rally. Each week will have a creative theme, exciting games, and homework challenges for students to work on between sessions. Please note that racquets can be purchased through Spark Junior Tennis.
