Hot Shots Tennis is a stepping stone for children to hopefully then lead to competition and further developments. See all the stages below.

Launch Pad Stage (ages 3-5)

The Launch Pad stage introduces children to tennis through games and fun activities. Children learn the basics of tennis including how to rally. This stage really helps children develop fundamental motor skills; throw, run, catch, jump, striking and most importantly, tracking. This is a great way for kids to start tennis and have fun.
