Tennis sessions at Kenwood

Upcoming tennis sessions offered by the Fayette County Parks and Recreation Department to improve all facets of your game.

Drills are designed to help you improve your technique for the following shots that you will be encountering in competitive tennis: forehands, backhands, volleys, half-volleys, overheads, and serves.

Emphasis will be placed on proper technique including back-swing, footwork, racket face control, and follow through, plus improving your court positioning. Additional focus will be on avoiding injuries and building stamina.

All drills will include games and competition to put your new strokes to the test. Drills led by Mike Wilson, a P.T.R. Certified Instructor and an A.C.E. Certified Personal Trainer.

Each session is 5-6 p.m. Saturdays at the Kenwood tennis courts. January and April sessions (five weeks) are $50 per resident and $75 per non-residents. Costs for February and March sessions (four weeks) are $40 and $60. Open to ages 14 and up.
