How to Get Started in Tennis:
🎾 Get a racket and balls.
No need to splurge—any entry-level racket will do as you get a feel for the game and learn the basics.
👟 Invest in quality tennis shoes.
Not all shoes labeled “tennis” are court-ready. Visit TennisWarehouse.com to find supportive, sport-specific options tailored to your foot type and movement needs.
🧱 Practice solo.
Hit against a wall if you can find one—it’s one of the best ways to develop timing and control. If not, start with simple coordination drills.
🎓 Find an experienced coach.
Look for a certified tennis coach with a clear methodology for building solid fundamentals. A quick phone call is a great way to learn about their approach and see if it's the right fit.
🤝 Join a group class.
Group sessions are fun, social, and game-based—an excellent way to build skills and spark your competitive side.
Tennis can be a lifelong journey that supports your health, sharpens your mind, and connects you with a vibrant community.
