May is National Tennis Month. In celebration of NTM the USTA Delaware District offers free INTRODUCTORY tennis classes to the community. These classes are designed to teach new tennis players the basics of tennis - using red and orange balls. Red tennis balls are oversized balls with 25 per cent compression. These are the lowest bouncing balls and travel through the air slower. Orange balls are normal sized tennis balls, having 50 per cent compression. Using slower moving and lower bouncing balls accelerates the learning process. These classes are intended for new players, however; if you currently play, but are hitting unpredictable shots on the tennis court - this class may benefit you. Please understand that we will move at a pace that our most inexperienced player needs. If you are a more experienced player - and you'd love the chance to mentor/help instruct other beginners, please feel free to contact me, Laura James, at 703-801-4471.
