Toss n\u2019 Catch<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Stand across from each other, one person on the doubles sideline and the other person on the singles sideline. Underhand toss the ball back and forth 10 times.<\/p>\n<p>+Start at the baseline and move sideways down the doubles and singles sidelines towards the net, tossing the ball underhand at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>++Use two balls. You will have to practice communication at the same time. For example, say \u201c1-2-3 toss.\u201d Both toss the ball at the same time and catch the other person\u2019s ball. Add the sideways movement if possible.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Sweet Spot<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With the racket in front of you, bounce the ball off the strings of the racket and catch it. Aim for the center of the strings, or the \u201csweet spot\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>+You can add movement by bouncing the ball off the strings of the racket and moving around the outside of the racket at the same time. Change directions.<\/p>\n<p>++Do the same drill, but use only one hand to bounce and catch the ball. Add movement around the racket.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Walk the Dog<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Have your child pick up the racket. With the ball on the ground, have them push the ball around the court trying to keep the ball on the lines.<\/p>\n<p>+Set up cones or some obstacles for them to go around and through.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Red Light, Green Light<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Put your child on the baseline while they balance the ball on the strings. Play the game \u201cRed Light, Green Light\u201d to the net. (Red light means stop, green light means go). If the ball falls off their strings, they have to start at the beginning.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Bounce and Hit<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At this point, your child is probably dying to actually hit the ball. Have them stand sideways with their racket back. Holding the ball as far away from their body, have them simply drop the ball from their hand and say \u201cbounce\u201d when it bounces, and \u201chit\u201d as they make contact.<\/p>\n<p>+Stand across from your child to give them a target. Every time you catch the ball, it\u2019s 1 point. Play to 5 points.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It doesn&#8217;t take a pro to help your child fall in love with tennis. However, if you are serious about your child learning the game the right way, then there is no substitute for putting them in lessons with a certified teaching professional. PlayYourCourt has fabulous, certified teaching professionals nationwide who will help your child build their skills at a time and location that is convenient for you. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.playyourcourt.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Click here to find a fun, patient PlayYourCourt coach near you.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kids and tennis go together like peanut butter and jelly\u2026 &#8230;maybe a little less messy\u2026 Tennis will help your child\u2019s physical, mental, and social development.
