NHSTC Tennis Levels

We are excited to share the changes coming to NHSTC for the summer. Our tennis programs will shift in setup and focuses, to better mirror the "leveled" learning that we offer in our Swim programs. This will give us a great chance to best serve our players and give them the most clear pathway to land where they will be challenged yet comfortable.

Register here links will not work until sign-ups start.

Level I (Red Ball)

This introductory program is ideal for players with little or no tennis experience. Participants will begin developing movement skills and learning the basic strokes, rules of the game, and court etiquette. Players will also work toward sustaining slow-paced rallies. The focus is on building fundamentals in a fun, supportive environment.

Some skills they will be focusing on: handling the racquet and hitting the ball with sound technique, coordination, balance, agility, reaction, jumping, skipping, throwing, catching, and tracking

Class Length: 45 minutes

Level II (Orange Ball)

This program builds on the foundation of skills built in level I and begins working on growing the command of shots and movement. Movement skills will become a larger focus with the intention of understanding how to affectively move on court and sustain longer rallies. Serves and point structure will become a point of emphasis in this program.

Class Length: 60 minutes

Level III (Green Ball)

This program is designed for advanced beginners, this class helps players improve stroke technique and consistency. Participants should be able to sustain a medium-paced rally, understand topspin and use it effectively, and have a reliable serve. Instruction will build on foundational skills while introducing more structured point play.

Class Length: 90 minutes

Level IV

This program is for intermediate players with improved consistency and directional control as well as spin and angles of groundstrokes. This program emphasizes technical development, tactics and patterns of play, and both singles and doubles strategy. It’s a great fit for players preparing for high school tennis or JV players aiming to move up to varsity.

Class Length: 90 minutes

Level V

This is a high-intensity program for advanced players with dependable strokes and the ability to direct shots with depth and spin on both sides. Development of offense and defense while honing your strengths, this class will stretch your learning. This level is geared toward varsity high school players or younger athletes performing at a similar competitive level. Sessions focus on advanced strategy, point construction, and match play intensity. **Entry to this group requires an evaluation with Director of Tennis, Nate Jones.
