                   Net Generation encourages kids to challenge themselves. It helps shape the game to indi-
                   vidual players, so they can learn at their own speed. Even more importantly, it uses tennis
                   as a pathway to personal development off the court. And for everyone involved, Net
                   Generation creates a strong sense of community for life. The curriculum was developed by
                   the USTA, the game’s governing body, with tools and lessons designed to challenge kids in
                   a fun and social way.
  We have also added “Match Play Days” which is a great way for kids ages 5–12 to play tennis in a fun,
non-threatening, non-eliminating, competitive environment with other tennis players their age and ability.
Match play is an important part of tennis. Kids will gain more court time, learn competitive strategies, and
meet new friends while brushing up on skills learned during lessons!
  Participants should provide their own youth tennis racquet; however, if you are unable to obtain a tennis
racquet for the lessons, the Parks and Recreation Department has a number of age appropriate racquets
that may be used for lessons. Call 651-322-6000 to reserve your racket.
Fridays are designated as the make-up date for classes that may be cancelled during the week due to
inclement weather. For weather related cancellations call the pre-recorded information line at
651-322-6020 and select option #6. LOCATION: Lessons will be conducted at the Erickson Park tennis
courts located at 14115 Brazil Ave .
