Teaching Youth for their Size
Under the direction of our Certified USPTA Professionals, our junior tennis program is widely accepted as one of the best in Myrtle Beach. We emphasize having fun while learning technique correctly and juniors are grouped for clinic instruction by age and skill level. Clinics are offered year-round starting at the age of 2.5.
