Tennis Hot Shots — Learn, Play & Develop

Blue Ball is the perfect introduction to tennis for our youngest players and beginners. Sessions focus on fun games and activities that develop hand-eye coordination, balance, movement, racquet skills and confidence.

Players learn the basics of hitting, catching, throwing and moving around the court while developing a positive and enjoyable introduction to tennis.

Red Ball players begin developing their tennis skills while learning how to rally, serve and play points. The smaller court and slower ball allow players to develop consistency and control while learning the basic rules and scoring of tennis.

The focus is on building confidence and helping players understand how to play the game.

Orange Ball introduces players to a larger court and a more dynamic style of tennis. Players develop their rallying, serving, movement and point construction, while learning how to use different areas of the court and make decisions during points.

This stage is a great pathway towards match play and junior competition.

Green Ball is the important transition between modified-court tennis and full-court competition. Players are introduced to a faster ball and more challenging style of play, helping them develop greater consistency, court coverage and tactical awareness.

Players work on serving, rallying, movement, point construction and match play, preparing them for the transition to a full-size court and standard yellow ball.

Yellow Ball is the final stage of the Hot Shots pathway and prepares players for full-court tennis and competitive play.

Players develop more advanced technical and tactical skills, including serving, rallying, movement, point construction, strategy and match play. From here, players can progress into junior competitions, squad training and performance programs, depending on their age, ability and development.
