Many people stay after each lesson to play with their fellow students, so that is a wonderful way for them to meet other players at a similar level.香蕉视频直播�
The club will have an open day on May 13 with warm-up drills and organized play. For kids that will be from 1 to 2 p.m. and 2 to 4 p.m. for adults.
The public is welcome to attend the first lesson and open day, but after that those who are not members would need to join the club to continue attending. Yearly membership for adults are $100, for under 18 it is $25 and for under 12 it is $15.
In the time the club has offered the lessons, Hunn said feedback has been positive. The instructors try to make the lessons fun and a good experience regardless of age or ability. Hunn said the sport is difficult for beginners and many newcomers can feel intimidated joining in with more experienced players.

The Penticton Tennis Club has experienced significant growth over the past few years and our free lessons have contributed to that.香蕉视频直播�
