Question 8

How are the group classes run?

Accepted Answer

• The Group Classes are run to focus on learning how to play points 
 • We do this by first refining their strokes by teaching them self feeding      
    • Where they learn to drop the ball and hit towards a target     
    • For more advanced players who already know how to hit a shot we use this to review their strokes and practice target in a controlled environment for 5 mins 
 • The 2nd stage is focusing on learning how to rally     
    • For beginners this is modified through equipment     
    • And broken down to learn each component of a rally e.g 
       • Learning how to track and touch a moving ball
 • Then returning in the correct direction before
 • Hitting it over the net
 • The final stage of each lesson focuses on the points to practice what they learnt in the self feeding and rallies
 • Technical coaching is a big part of what we do but it is all done in a point scenario so players pick up the game from the get go all while learning a more stable shot

Question 9

What do you focus on in your classes?

Accepted Answer

We focus on having a nice solid stroke, watching and tracking the ball, moving to the ball and recovering, hitting the basic strokes, rallying, playing points and when to focus on the ball.

Question 10

How do you know what class my child should be in?

Accepted Answer

We grade every player through the Stars Rating system from 20 to 1. 
This grading system is a skill based grading system, that compares what strokes, movements etc that a player can do within the grade.  We then place them in a suitable age range.
You can request to play with a friend if they are of a similar skill level.
