LEVEL BREAKDOWN

Beginner (1.0-1.5): newbie. just getting started, learning the basics.

Advanced Beginner (2.0-2.5): knows how to execute all strokes and has correct court positioning. Starting to be able to rally. Ready for Intro 105, but Intermediate level 105 is not yet appropriate.

Intermediate (3.0-3.5): able to rally with ease, correct stroke form, still makes unforced errors.

Upper Intermediate (3.5-4.0): stands out in the intermediate level, but not quite ultra.

Advanced (4.0+): consistent player that exhibits power, placement, and point execution. Destroys the intermediate level competition and while better than the players in Upper Intermediate, will still have fun in their 105.

WHAT YOU CAN SIGN UP FOR BASED ON LEVEL

Beginners: Foundations (lessons are strongly encouraged for newbies)

Advanced Beginners: Foundations, Drills & Fun, Cardio, Intro 105, Weekend Fix

Intermediate: Net/Base Power, Cardio, Intermediate 105, 2 vs. 2 105, Weekend Fix, Serves/Returns

Upper Intermediate: Upper Intermediate 105, Net/Base Power, Serves/Returns

Advanced: Ultra, Net/Base Power, Serves/Returns, Upper Intermediate 105

If you aren’t into clinics, you can book private or group lessons, serving lessons, 3+Me’s with your favorite pro, etc.

NOTE: If you sign up for something that is not level appropriate for you, we will have to swap you for a better option…that might mean bumping you up or down. I know it sucks if we bump you down, but please don’t take it personally — you and everyone on your court will be happiest and gain more value when the levels are appropriately matched. Don’t hesitate to ask what you need to improve on to advance to the next level.

CLINIC DESCRIPTIONS

Foundations: this one is all about learning and executing all the strokes. Less about the workout and more about correct form.

Drills & Fun: one hour of drills focused on stroke improvement, with the last 30 designated for live ball games.

Cardio: expect to get sweaty, move a lot, and hit a lot of balls

Serves & Returns: half the time serving and half returning.

Net/Base Power: drill focused for the first hour on groundies and volleys, with the last 30 designated to games catered to the drills just performed.

Weekend Fix: an hour of fun to get your weekend morning started. Emphasis on cardio, drills, and the last bit is games.

105: fast, fun, solid workout and chaotic at times. not for the tennis traditionalist. winners are worth varying amounts based on the type of shot. pros keep score. 3 max per side, first to get to 105.

INTRO 105 = Advanced Beginners
105 = Intermediate
UPPER I 105 = Upper Intermediate + Advanced
ULTRA = Advanced Players

2 vs. 2 105: 105 but 2 max per side for those that want the extra action and sweat. On Ballbutton there will be different level options (Intermediate, Upper I, Ultra).

We have a STRICT 24 hour cancellation policy. If for whatever reason you don’t cancel 24 hours before your lesson, clinic, or court rental you will be charged full price for the session.
Similarly, for private 105's the roster you give will be charged unless the group chooses to divide it amongst themselves instead of charging the no show person. This is your court time and pro, we are not responsible for finding subs if someone bails last minute.

If you are at least 15 minutes late for a clinic, we will give your spot to someone on the waitlist.
You need to wear tennis shoes (smooth soles) this protects you from busting an ankle and the courts from getting chewed up. As for clothes, you can wear whatever you like as long as you have on tennis shoes.
