ORIGIN TENNIS HOTSHOTS
What is Origin Tennis Hot Shots?

What to expect at a coaching lesson
Lessons run for 30 - 45 minutes. Using modified equipment, kids will be guided through the technical and tactical fundamentals of the game in an environment that will instill a love of the game. All lessons are underpinned by a philosophy of learning through play, and teach skills for life such as agility, flexibility, balance and speed. Lessons will keep kids constantly involved with lots of cooperative partner activities used to challenge kids to improve their skills every week.
Does my child need to bring anything?
It’s recommended that your child come to their first lesson in comfortable sports clothes, runners, a hat and with a bottle of water. If you’re unsure of what equipment to bring, your coach should be able to assist by lending a racquet for their first lesson.
