Kids' tennis (ages 7-10)
The next level for the bigger ones - kids' tennis (ages 7-10): A new court size for those who are already a little further: the midcourt. Here the children play technically and tactically like the older teenagers. The rackets are slightly larger than in the small court, the balls are slightly smaller and 50 percent slower than conventional tennis balls. All necessary materials - including the rackets - can be provided free of charge.
What was built in young children's tennis is continued between the ages of seven and nine. The strokes now receive the previously mentioned completion (loop, swing, etc.), but also stroke variations (topspin and slice). The children should be enabled to play together in the regular court (with normal balls) in a technically correct way with round strokes. The main topics in this age group are:
Continuation of coordinative and motor training
Improving coordination and speed as the foundation for efficient tennis technique.
Technical training of all strokes to enable playing of matches
Learning and consolidating all basic strokes and applying them confidently in match situations.
Forehand & Backhand Variations
(Topspin & Slice)
Developing versatile stroke techniques using topspin and slice to improve control and tactical options.
