| The
QuickStart Tennis format works by getting
kids into the game immediately. Within
the first hour of stepping onto the court,
they are actually playing the game, rallying
with one another and having fun.
Scaling the game down to their size helps
make the learning process easier and a lot
more fun.
The majority of
youth sports have followed this very formula
for years. Baseball begins with
smaller bats, smaller fields and progresses
from tee ball, to coach pitch, to player
pitch. Basketball and soccer also
employ similar methods, including
shortened playing surfaces and appropriate
sized equipment. That helps ensure
that your kids' first experiences in the
sport will leave them overjoyed not
overwhelmed.
The shorter
and narrower courts give kids the confidence
and ability to cover the entire court.
Kids have trouble controlling full-sized
racquets because they are too long, too
heavy and the grips are too large. Jr.
racquets are proportionate in length and
weight and have the grips that fit smaller
hands. This makes it easier to
control. And balls that bounce at a
height equal to kids' playing abilities
allows for better and longer rallies and
allows them to build all-court games.
By being
introduced to this style of play from the
start, your kids will gain confidence by
seeing their own immediate progress, making
them more enthusiastic about continuing to
play and improve. QuickStart Tennis
enables kids to have more enjoyable
experiences early on in the learning process
and having fun is always a factor in keeping
kids involved. |
