SKILL LEVELS & GROUP PLACEMENT

Upon arrival, all participants are evaluated by the staff so that their own instructional needs can be addressed throughout the week. Participants are then sorted by ability first, then age per the Director's discretion - adjustments are made as needed during the clinic.

While there are many ways to define skill levels, the following descriptions are what the Directors at Nike Tennis Clinics will use to organize and group participants. At the time of registration, please choose the level that best represents your athlete's experience:

• Beginner: Players new to the game with little to no formal tennis instruction. They are still learning the fundamentals, focusing on basic skills and rules of the game. Typically play for recreation and have minimal match-play experience.

• Intermediate: Players who can serve and sustain rallies with consistency. They are comfortable hitting medium-paced shots but may struggle with all strokes and directional control. Some may have participated in local tournaments and possess a UTR rating or are equivalent to a High School JV player.

• Advanced: Players with dependable strokes and solid directional control. They demonstrate a strong competitive spirit, improved court coverage, and are developing strategies for both singles and doubles play. These players frequently compete in tournaments and have a USTA or UTR rating, or are equivalent to a High School Varsity player.

EQUIPMENT, FACILITY & MORE

• Equipment Needed: All participants must bring a tennis racquet, tennis shoes, and a water bottle.

• Inclement Weather Plan: Registered participants will be notified of any adjustments due to inclement weather, including (but not limited to) changes to clinic hours or rescheduled dates.
