what is hot shots coaching

Tennis Hot Shots is the national starter tennis program for children.
Smaller courts, shorter racquets and softer balls mean that kids can play a proper game of tennis from the moment they step onto the court.

The Blue Stage (age 3-5)
Introduces children to tennis through games and fun activities. Children learn the basics of tennis.

The Red Stage (age 5-8)
The courts and nets used in the Red stage are much smaller making it easier for kids to move around and enjoy success.
Tournaments = Hot Shots

The Orange Stage (age 8-10)
After mastering the Red stage, children move on to the Orange stage where the ball bounces a little higher (50% compression) and the court is a bit bigger.
Tournaments = Hot Shots

The Green Stage (age 9 and above)
The ball used in the Green stage has a higher compression than the Red and Orange stages (75% of a yellow tennis ball) and children play on a full-size court.
Tournaments = Matchplay and Beginner Interclub
