No Racquet? No Problem. If you do not have a tennis racquet, I will be happy to provide you with a racquet for the first clinic. At the end of the first clinic, I will recommend a racquet of the correct size and weight.
Racquets will be available for purchase at the clinic.
All canceled classes will be made up. Click on "Make-up Dates" in the Tennis Clinics menu bar, above, for more info.
Miss a Class? No Problem. If you have to miss a Little Grippers, Little Kahunas, or Juniors class during the Spring session, you may attend any Spring session class at the Murrysville clinic at Chambers Park on Tuesdays as your make-up. Murrysivlle classes are held at the same times as the Greensburg classes.
Spring make-up classes can be made-up during the Spring session, only, and cannot be carried over to future sessions.
High School/Advanced Juniors classes are only offered at the Murrysville location, so there are no make-up classes available. However, high school students may attend an Adult Clinic class as a make-up.
Private Lessons and Group Lessons are also available. Contact Bob at 814-659-4908.
