Tennis Hot Shots - the perfect program for coaches in NZ 2014/2015 What is it? Hot Shots provides a consistent, fun and safe tennis experience for all kids aged 3 - 12. The key philosophies of the program are:

1. Learning through play – children learn the game of tennis, rather than just the isolated skills. 2. Scaled equipment – smaller courts, racquets and low-compression balls. 3. Progressive pathway – children can move through the blue, red, orange and green stages as their tennis improves.
