Frequently asked questions
What age can my child start tennis?+
From age 2. The Toddler group for ages 2–3 meets indoors in Davie on Monday and Wednesday at 3 PM, and Preschooler for ages 3–7 meets on weekdays at 4 PM.
Is the first class really free?+
Yes, for children. It's a full class in the group your child would join, so you see the coach and the fit before paying anything.
Which group is right for my child?+
Ages 3–7 play at 4 PM, ages 7–13 at 5 PM. The 6 PM Advanced Competition group is for children ready for match play — the coach will tell you when your child is ready. Conditioning on Tuesday and Thursday is part of this group.
Can my child come on different days each week?+
Yes. A plan is a number of classes a week, not fixed days: come on any weekday, at the park running that day.
What should my child bring?+
Comfortable athletic clothes, sneakers and water. We provide rackets and balls sized to each age group for the first class.
Do you offer kids tennis near Fort Lauderdale and Hollywood?+
Yes. Patrick J. Meli Park and Frost Park are each about 10–15 minutes by car from downtown Fort Lauderdale and from Hollywood — see Fort Lauderdale and Hollywood.
