Tennis is a life long sport for everyone. We introduce the game of tennis to young children and teenagers through our modified equipment, court size, and points play. Students will develop motor skills that will also benefit them in other sports learning. The classes we offer will focus on proper stroke techniques, strategies in singles & doubles, mental toughness, teamwork, and sportsmanship.
Our facility is currently closed due to COVID-19 therefore our fitness services are on hold until we reopen our facility. Please follow us on Facebook (FerrisRQT) or Instagram (Ferris_RQT) to stay updated.
