TENNIS

Tennis Clinics

Have fun improving your tennis game with the camaraderie of a group! Our Tennis Clinics have a maximum of 6 people per coach so you get lots of attention and can learn quickly.

Each Tennis Clinics Season is 8-weeks long, giving you plenty of time to learn and practice skills. Check our schedule for the start dates for Winter, Early Spring, Late Spring, Summer, Early Fall, and Late Fall seasons. Our tennis clinics fill up fast, so don’t wait to get enrolled.

Clinics are open to both Members and Non-Members.

Whether you want to learn tennis, knock the rust off, or improve your ranking, you will receive plenty of personalized feedback, attention and hitting time in these small group tennis lessons. Tennis Clinics are a great way to see real improvement with professional instruction — at a fraction of the cost of private sessions. Develop your skills, build your knowledge and confidence, and see your game grow.

NOTE: To register for intermediate or advanced tennis clinics you must have taken a BTTC clinic, have a USTA National Tennis Rating Program (NTRP) rating, or be approved by a BTTC Tennis Pro. Still need a rating? Sign up for a 30-minute Placement Lesson so our Pro can give you a Club rating and make sure you are in the appropriate level of tennis clinic and events.

Placement Lesson

Schedule a “Tennis Placement Lesson” for the easiest and fastest way to understand your player level. In this 30-minute lesson and hitting session, your Pro uses a variety of drills and assessments in order to evaluate your level of play. This will give you the confidence to enter into our programs at the correct level and/or to seek matches with others at your estimated NTRP.

For juniors and adults: if you’ve never participated in tennis clinics at our club and do not currently hold an NTRP rating, you are required to take a Tennis Placement Lesson in order to qualify for our intermediate and advanced programming.

CALL THE CLUB AT 360-733-5050 or email [email protected] to schedule your Placement Appointment.
