Kidsles

You can't start early enough

Padel is a racket sport that is relatively easy to master. How nice is it to be able to exercise together as a family? In our lessons we will ensure that a child knows how to use a racket and ball more quickly so that he/she is able to play a rally. From the skill of rallying, the child will soon be able to play the real game. Each children's lesson lasts 45 minutes.

Padel is not yet a popular sport among youth players. We are going to change that. It may be that there are not enough registrations at this time to fill a class. Our tennis and padel school will discuss the options with you. The padel lessons at TPC Gaasperpark are provided by Drive-Itt. In 2023 we will offer three lesson blocks:

    April 10 - June 18 June 19 - September 24 (with summer break from 24/07 to 03/09) September 25 - November 19

What is Red, Orange, Green?

Padel and tennis are great fun, but also difficult. The tennis court is very large and the balls are quite heavy. When playing football, children with the F's and E's play on a smaller field. They do the same in tennis, but they don't say F or E. In tennis they say Red, Orange and Green.

Red (up to 8 years)

Getting to know the game of tennis

In Tenniskids Red, children up to 8 years old are introduced to the game of tennis. They learn basic movement and coordination skills. They participate in fun activities at the association and play short matches with their team in the Red League. They can also participate in Tennis Kids tournaments, which often only last (part of) a day. In Red the children play with a soft red ball on a mini track.

Orange (up to 10 years)

Further development

Tenniskids Oranje is working on further development. The children are aged 8 to 10 years old and learn new strokes and techniques that will help them to eventually play on a large course. Children who play in Oranje can play matches by participating in the Oranje competition with their team. The matches in Orange last just a little longer than in Red. In Orange, children play with an orange ball that is suitable for playing on a three-quarter court.

Green (up to 12 years)

Preparing for the entire job
