Recreational Coaches Workshop is coming to Shakopee!
The USTA and the Shakopee Tennis Association will be hosting a Recreational Coaches Workshop on Sunday, June 15 from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at the Shakopee Jr. High/Stans Park Courts.
These workshops are an excellent primer for new coaches as well as a valuable refresher course for those with teaching experience but who seek more current methods and effective tools. Past attendees include:
• Parents seeking the basics in coaching and organizing team tennis
• Park and Recreation instructors, high school, and seasonal coaches
• Coaches teaching kids and adults who are new to the game
• Current players seeking part-time teaching jobs
Top trainers. Top results.
Our faculty are all certified by the PTR and/or USPTA and have received special training from the USTA.
This is a fun filled, exciting day. A Recreational Coach Workshop is an interactive, on-court training program designed for tennis teachers and coaches working with players at the recreational level.
Taught by a specially trained, certified teaching professional, this active 6-hour session covers:
• Teaching large groups
• The games-based approach to coaching
• The QuickStart Tennis format
• Running effective team practices
• The Top 10 Games Every Coach Should Know
We highly encourage any parent that is interested in becoming a better player - or wants to help coach youth and youth teams, high school tennis coaches, varsity players, park and rec instructors attend this fun day.
