ROOSEVELT ISLAND RACQUET CLUB

QuickStart Program

What is QuickStart Tennis?

QuickStart Tennis uses shorter courts, slower bouncing balls and shorter racquets to make learning tennis easier and more fun. Children learn basic strokesmore easily because the equipment and the court are age and size appropriate. They have more fun playing games and doing drills where they can experience success. Young players feel what it’s like to “play tennis” and can easily progress to play, lessons and competition on full size courts.

LATE STARTS ARE WELCOME. FEES WILL BE PRO-RATED.
