Professional Instruction
The Pro Shop has three USTPA certified tennis professionals available for private, semi-private or group tennis lessons. Our instructors have a passion for tennis and they are enthusiastic to share this with Admirals Cove members. For the beginner, lessons incorporate technique and strategy to help each player develop their unique style. We not only teach the dynamics of strokes, we also teach the best strategy to utilize them. If you should desire to add that cross-court, two-handed backhand to your game, the Tennis Club offers a variety of clinics to help anyone sharpen their skills.
The Admirals Cove tennis program includes dynamic and fun programs for younger children eager to learn how to play the game, as well as programs geared for older youth players who are interested in further developing their game. Our instructors are specifically trained to work with children and teens to make learning the game of tennis fun and engaging.
Youth Program
This very popular six-week program is offered four times per year to our Admirals Cove residents’ children and their friends. Younger children are grouped by their ability levels instead of age, and each group is limited to six students, to maximize the development of their skills and create the most rewarding experience. A “kickoff party” starts each session to determine each child’s level.
Junior Holiday Clinic
In this annual clinic, children are grouped according to level and ability, with a Student/Professional staff ratio of 5:1. All five major strokes are reviewed in a fun-filled, high energy environment where games and special equipment keep things exciting and fun, while stressing solid fundamentals.
Quickstart Tennis
QuickStart Tennis appropriately scales down all aspects of regulation tennis – including equipment, court dimensions, and scoring.
The format is broken into two age groupings, for children ages 10 and under and for those who are 8 and under, similar to models used successfully in other youth sports (such as youth baseball).
QuickStart has changed the teaching approach from traditional instruction to “play to learn” and added fitness and conditioning activities that work on agility, balance, coordination, and reaction time. Kids have so much fun with QuickStart that they don’t even know they are learning… and learning a lot.
QuickStart brings out the best in kids, naturally.
