What you need to bringSupportive shoes you can move in that won’t slip around - tennis shoes, cross trainers, or trail runners are ok (running shoes aren’t the best)
For intermediate students and above, please wear shorts, pants, or skirts with pockets or spandex that can hold a tennis ball or two.
Bring a racquet if you have one, water, and sunglasses or a hat if we’re playing outside.
What I can bringI can provide racquets, balls, hoppers, grip tape, and more - I just need to know in advance exactly what you need.
