The Slice program Level 1 is designed for players ages 12-17 who are new to tennis or are still developing basic skills. Using green balls on a full or modified court as needed, players learn the fundamentals of tennis including proper grips, forehand and backhand technique, basic footwork, and how to start points with a serve. Sessions focus on rallying, movement, scoring, and simple point play in a supportive and fun environment. The goal of level 1 is to help players learn the basics, rally, serve and start to play points.

Recommended for: Players new to tennis, learning to rally, serve and play points in a full and modified court.
