2012 Rivi Kids Tennis Programs

Julie Fritz, Junior Tennis Pro, will be directing our Rivi Kids Tennis, using the United States Tennis Association’s QuickStart Learn to Play program. Julie has worked in the tennis industry for over 20 years and currently is a pro and tournament director at the Indianapolis Racquet Club. Julie is the coach of the RHI Adult Wheelchair Tennis Team. She has coached middle school tennis and been the Assistant Director for the National Junior Tennis League.

Rivi Kids' Tennis is implementing the USTA's QuickStart program, which follows the same logic as other youth sports like baseball, basketball or soccer, which use kid-sized courts and kid-sized equipment. With QuickStart, balls bounce lower, don't move as fast through the air and are easier to hit. The racquets are sized for small hands and the courts are smaller and easier to cover. By using this format, the benefits are immediate and within a short time kids are rallying, playing, and excited to keep playing. They're playing real tennis and having real fun—and that’s what is most important!

• All classes will be divided by ability.
• Make-ups (for classes missed) are available on alternative class days/times, with instructor permission.
• Private and Group lessons are always available, upon request. Please feel free to inquire about availability for your group!
