You like to become as good as the pro's ????
Junior and Adult classes are being taught at the Harbour Village Tennis Center year round. For the local junior players the year is
divided into 2 courses: classes are taught from January through June and from August through December. Adults can start any
time.
Junior tennis classes:
The class schedule has group and private classes, recreational and competitive groups. The junior players are divided by level and
where necessary also by age. There are currently 5 different levels: A, B, C, D, and E.
The E players are the little ones, who will play mini tennis. The maximum age is 8 years old, minimum age about 4, but that's very
individual. The tennis coach will evaluate your child and decide on acceptance in the Junior program. The small children only use
the service courts to play their matches, but have great fun doing so. Every half year they go through a certification program and they
can receive up to 2 different diploma's.
From 8 years on, or upon reaching a certain level in the game, the children go towards playing the whole court game. D players still
get to serve from within the court, where C players serve from behind the baseline. Every half year they also go through a
certification program and they can also receive up to 2 different diploma's.
Top juniors play in the A category, and will have a chance to represent Bonaire abroad. These players train almost daily and have to
combine tennis and school.
Part of the junior program is condition training; the older kids are doing timed training, where the younger ones do timed short
distance work. To give them an extra push, a top 10 of strongest runners will be posted here on the web:
Top 10 Fastest runners: 1 lap and 2 laps:
Bonaire has already some Junior players accepted into a tennis academy in the Netherlands, where the kids trained and visited a
so called LOOT-school. These special schools have individual schedule that meet the demands of training and competing
nationally and abroad for young talented sportsmen and women. Some of these young promising athletes have now left for the
USA, where they continue to train and work towards being accepted into college tennis.
Adult classes:
By yourself or with some friends, tennis classes for adults are taught on demand and can start any time in the year. Usually players
like to schedule a certain day and time. Give Elisabeth a call at 7008282 to set up a first training.
Private classes are 30 minutes or 50 minutes.
Group classes are always 50 minutes with anywhere from 2 up to 6 players.
