RED BALL
Boys and girls ages 5-7. Using smaller racquets, shorter nets, and a red ball that moves slower and bounces lower, your child will learn basics such as the parts of the racquet and court. They will also learn the strokes including forehand, backhand, serves, volleys and overheads. Recommended racquet size: 19”-21’’
