About Charlotte City Tennis
OUR HISTORY
Charlotte City Tennis was founded in 2012 with the goal of establishing quality tennis programming for the community. We offer a comprehensive array of programs for both juniors and adults, regardless of skill level. Combining a USPTA-certified staff along with our numerous instructional and match play programs makes CCT the best place for tennis in Charlotte.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
We believe proper skill development and encouraging personal development is just as important to long-term success in tennis as stroke and tactical development. Without first being able to catch a ball, you can't expect to be able to hit a ball with a racquet. Our teaching model is based on a series of progressions.
Skill Foundation
Balance, eye-hand coordination, and spatial relationship recognition between oneself and the ball.
Athletic Development
Focusing on overall athletic development so players apply skills to tennis with a much higher success rate.
Quickstart Method
Proper court size, ball, racquet length, net height, and score for each age group — maximizing development at every level.
First, the proper skills need to be developed. These include balance, eye-hand coordination, and spatial relationship recognition between oneself and the ball. By focusing on the overall athletic development of the player, they have a much higher success rate when trying to apply these skills to the game of tennis.
The Quickstart methodology requires the proper court size, ball, racquet length, net height, and score for each age group. By combining the proper skill development with the Quickstart format, we feel each player maximizes their skills at each level. By sticking to this path, players develop quicker and have more success. For more information, visit 10 and Under Tennis.
Learning and playing the game of tennis has enormous benefits at all levels, both for children and adults. You don't have to train or have the athletic skills of a touring pro to reap the benefits this game has to offer. Learning how to think independently, make quick decisions, and improve athletic skills are just a few benefits that can help people of all ages. By offering a structure that starts with the simplest of concepts and progresses to the most complex, we truly feel we have something for everyone.
