Our "Hit With a Pro" event got underway at 10 AM as planned on Sunday August 1st at City Park. Coach Dan Dicke graciously donated some of his time to interact with the participants and gave us some great tips on improving our Tennis. He focussed on minimizing errors while playing from the baseline. We ran through some drills on getting the elevation above the net and landing the ball in the last quarter of the opponents court.
In summary Dan's message was "Always try to hit the ball to the last quarter of your opponents court even if you cant put enough spin or power on the ball. It is better to hit the ball behind the baseline rather than catching the net". After focussing hard on the drill we played a round robin style, super tie-break games against each other. Check out some pics from the event below.
We gave away some goodies courtesy of GolfSmith Tennis at the end of the event. A big thank you to Coach Dan Dicke and all the members who participated in the event. It was a lot of fun!!
