 :: Simon  
 

Simon assembles his group and splits them into two teams.

"Now come up to the net and listen closely"

Simon explains how to play "Bobsled".

Unfortunately, it's easy to be distracted when you have such skills to show...

"... if you miss the ball or hit it out, then you sit down on the line"

"When there are players sitting in the middle of the court..."

"... well, they might just get hit."

"So I will feed the balls to you and you each take turns at returning the ball, then drop to the back of your line".

 
     

 :: Terry  
 

At the Saturday morning session, Terry encourages juniors to join interclub teams.

There is plenty of talent among these kids ...

... and competitive tennis is a good opportunity for fun ...

... and development.
