Participants of all ages and skill levels can work on their tennis skills this summer with the Cape Girardeau Parks and Recreation Department.
The instructor in all classes will provide a balance of instruction and practice. Emphasis will be on proper grip, stance, swing, serve and ball placement, as well as hitting with control for depth and power. Please bring your own tennis racket, water, and wear appropriate clothing and footwear.
