*Monday's class introducing "Quick Start Tennis" with Andy!

Pennbriar's Love Bugs and Sweetspots summer program is proud to introduce the USTA "Quickstart Tennis" program.  Quickstart is a new format to help kids 10 & under learn and play the game.  To make things easier for them, we have changed a few things...the court size, the ball size, the scoring system, and the net height.  The changes work too because now any child can start playing the game almost immediately.  Just like other popular youth sports, Quickstart stresses the importance of play and team competition.  Juniors will have fun playing with their friends and develop skills that will become the foundation for their game.   Quickstart...tennis for kids!
