Tennis is the perfect sport for your kids and is now easier to play! Quickstart tennis is an innovative teaching system endorsed by the USTA. It uses modified equipment (smaller racquets and lower compression tennis balls) and smaller court sizes. The fundamentals of the game will be taught and participants will quickly be rallying and playing, creating a positive fun atmosphere to continue learning this lifetime sport.
