Hot Shots Tennis
Green Stage

Preparing for Full Court Tennis

Green Stage is designed to prepare players for the transition into full court tennis. The court dimensions, racquets and ball speed become more challenging while still providing an environment where players can develop confidence and success.

Players build stronger technical skills, improve tactical decision making and gain more experience in competitive play. Green Stage also caters for different goals. Some children simply want to enjoy tennis with friends, while others begin exploring more advanced pathways and competition opportunities.

What they'll learn 

  • Developing spin on the ball

  • Match tactics 

  • Offensive and defensive play 

  • Singles and doubles strategy 

  • Competition readiness
