Junior Tennis Programs (Ages 5-16)
Expert-led tennis training in South Bangalore focusing on fundamental stroke mechanics, agility, and long-term skill development.
For our players under 8, we use specialized equipment like this tennis pro stand to ensure they practice hitting the ball at the right height and contact point, correcting their form with every swing.
In our group sessions for kids, we run structured drills where each player gets individual attention. Here, a coach is basket-feeding balls to help players practice their forehand consistency and recovery.
During rally practice, we provide constant feedback in both English and Kannada, reminding players to keep their "left hand ಮುಂದೆ ಇಡು" (left hand forward) to maintain balance and execute a proper swing.
We teach our junior players the importance of a deep backswing to generate power. This drill focuses on getting behind the service line to practice hitting deep, consistent groundstrokes.
This group drill focuses on mastering the backhand. We guide players through the correct footwork and swing path to develop a reliable and powerful two-handed or one-handed backhand.
"Swing high" is a common instruction you'll hear on our courts. This drill helps young players focus on finishing their swing over their shoulder for a complete follow-through and better ball control.
Repetition is key to building solid technique. Here, a young player in our junior program works on her forehand, focusing on movement and consistent contact with the ball.
About this collection
We don't just put kids on a court and hope for the best. Our 3-sessions-per-week junior program follows a strict progression, using age-appropriate equipment like low-compression balls to ensure your child learns the correct mechanics without frustration.
How We Train Kids
At our Bikasipura academy, we keep the focus on building a solid foundation. Whether your child is 5 or 16, they receive step-by-step guidance. We limit our group batches to a 1:6 or 1:8 coach-to-student ratio, meaning your child gets actual feedback on their swing path, footwork, and grip, rather than just hitting balls randomly.
Why Red Clay Courts?
We prioritize training on red clay courts because they are more forgiving on joints and teach players to slide, balance, and wait for the ball. It’s a surfaces that demands better movement habits, which helps juniors develop a complete game early on. If weather creates issues, we have indoor backup courts ready to keep the training consistent.
Progression and Assessment
We treat every student's growth seriously. We conduct formal skill assessments every three months to track level advancement. This isn't just about fun; it’s about measurable progress. We use specialized equipment tailored to their age—red, orange, or green dot balls—to keep the rallies going and the confidence high. By the time they graduate from our junior tennis coaching programs, they are ready for the next level, whether that is club play or competitive tournaments.
