Many of the principles upon which the junior program is based can be found on the CoachSteveClarkPhD.com website such as the F.O.C.U.S. principle, deliberate practice, transformational coaching (as opposed to transactional) etc. Parents and players alike are invited to join thousands of others around the world to listen to Steve’s podcasts (The Coach Steve Clark PhD Show) with elite world class players, coaches, nutritionists and more.
For details regarding Junior’s classes, please see the informational pdf attached here.

(7 years old and under). Players are introduced to the fundamentals of tennis through fun activities using red dot balls. We do address footwork, technical basics including continental grip while using serves, the volley etc. We adhere to the view that young players can do more than many give them credit for and they like to have higher expectations along with encouragement. We want proper technique to being at the earliest stages and in every class, every level we want them to walk away with something learned and good experience. Forehands, Backhands, serves, volley, overheads and forms of rallies are instructed.
