Children's Tennis Lessons

[Jen939]

Does anyone know of any places in the La Plata/waldorf area that offer tennis lessons for children (8 years old)? I have only been able to find week-long summer camps, but was hoping to find something starting in the fall then picking up again in spring, unless there is something indoors.

Thanks!

I was looking for adult classes and found out Charles County Parks offers kids classes at Wade Community Center in Waldorf. Click => HERE and go to page 18. I thought they also offered lessons at White Plains but that might have been the camp I saw.

I just signed my 8-year-old daughter up for weekly lessons with First Serve Tennis Academy (now part of "FirstPlay Sports"). They're listed in the Charles County Parks & Recreation Guide as a "camp" but they also offer once a week lessons. The next 6-week session starts in mid-April at the White Plains Regional Park tennis courts. See links:

The lessons haven't started yet, so I can't comment on the quality of instruction. I called their headquarters, and a representative said they aim for one instructor per every 6 kids who sign up (but the range could be anywhere from 4 to 8 kids per instructor).

I'll check those out. Thanks!
