Junior Giants 12 + years old

The Explore Junior Giants program consisting of one weekly tennis lesson has been created for children or teenagers who haven't taken part in any tennis lessons as a youngster or the exposure to tennis has been very limited. The class is structured for maximum of 4 participants in their respective age bracket to ensure personal approach and socially comfortable environment.

The beginner Giants will have to go through fundamentals such as balance, coordination, reception skills or basic movement patterns before they can take on full court tennis. This may take 2 - 4 terms practicing in one weekly lesson. For a full list of competencies, please see Red stage.

For Giants participants, one lesson a week over two years will generally allow them to play on the full court with the green low compression ball and to develop all of the technical fundamentals and the use of topspin on most strokes. They will be able to play tennis socially at the intermediate to advanced level as an adult.

Due to the complex nature of tennis and different skill level of participants, the Giants stage of junior development is divided into 3 levels.

The speed of the progress is very much dependant on previous exposure to tennis or sport in general.
