Drill & Play (3.0 - 3.5 players)

Looking to improve your game/strategy, ground strokes, and more?  Look no further.  Join us for some terrific Drill & Play for levels 3.0 - 3.5. 

Our AWESOME Instructor: JASON SPEIRS, Tennis Director of RIRC will definitely put you through your paces.

Space is LIMITED to FOURTEEN (14) players and is on a first come, first serve basis.

How It Works:

A Roosevelt Island pro coordinates drills with six (6) players on one (1) court while on the next court four (4) players play doubles.  Players rotate from drills court to doubles court (details below):

• Drills court: The drills court consists of practicing doubles strategy, volley/approach shots, king of the court, "sky ball," and other fun drills.

• Doubles court: Four (4) players play doubles while the others do drills.  They will play four (4) games so that everyone gets a chance to serve once with no ad scoring.  Once the games are completed, the four (4) players are rotated back into the other court for drills while a new set of four (4) players play doubles.

• The process repeats until the time allotted expires.  The selection of the doubles match ups is done at the discretion of the Roosevelt Island pro with consultation with the MTG Coordinator.

• Tennis balls are provided by RIRC.
