Up for RTC's Progressive Tennis Summer Session!
What is Progressive Tennis?
A mini-revolution is brewing in North America. The approach
is called Progressive Tennis. It is imported from
European countries such as France and Belgium where it was
used to successfully develop players like Justine Henin-Hardenne.
Progressive Tennis uses a systematic progression of court
sizes, balls, and racquets, to scale the game down to an appropriate
level.
The power of the progressive tennis system is that it
allows players to play quickly and successfully. In Progressive
Tennis, the philosophy is that tennis is a great and fun
game to play and the quicker and more skillfully a player
can play the more fun it is. Each stage not only has specific
equipment to aid success, but particular skills to develop
as well. It is recommended a Game- Based Approach be used.
The coachs job is to get them to play, and help them
learn to play better. Simply put, Progressive Tennis
is used as a developmental tool to allow young children
to improve their overall tennis skills faster so they can
transition to the regular court with more ease. For more
