Have
you ever dreamt about playing like Roger Federer or Maria Sharapova?
While we may not all be cut out for the courts of Wimbledon, there is no
reason why we can't enjoy the game of tennis.
The
'learn-to-play' tennis course is designed to provide basic introduction
to the game of tennis for beginners, i.e. players who are just starting
out to play tennis with limited or no playing experience. Level 1 is for
beginners and Level 2 caters to people who have had some tennis lessons.
There is a choice of five or ten sessions for both levels. At the end of
the course, participants will be able to understand the rules of the
game, simple tactics, the fundamentals of the serve and volley, forehand
and backhand drive, and more.
