Tennis lessons are a great way to learn the game of tennis or to perfect your tennis game.
Whether your child is brand new to tennis or an advanced player, he or she can learn skills and techniques from one of our tennis professionals.
We offer private, semi-private and group clinics for players of all ages and skill levels.

Youth Lessons & Clinics
The YMCA partners with Planting Performance, LLC to offer Planting Performance at the Y instructional programming for beginners, juniors, adults, collegiate and advanced players. Planting Performance focuses on enhancing technical tennis abilities, while also emphasizing the mental and physical strength components.
This collaboration brings a new level of tennis instruction to the Y, with broadened program offerings that include opportunities for a wide range of our YMCA membership and Triangle community.
Registration for programs, clinics or lessons is available online. Assistance is also available by email.

Parents
Parents are expected to remain onsite (fields and gyms) as the primary supervisor of their child. This includes taking their children to the restroom and addressing any challenges that may arise. This allows our coaches to focus on leading practices and games. In addition, YMCA sports staff will be present at all practices and games.
