New tennis players are welcome to register for weekly lessons over the summer months, as well. The youth beginner group will meet on Mondays from 2-2:45 p.m. Youth must be at least 7 years of age to qualify. This group will feature hand-tossed balls for all drills to allow the player to develop proper form and muscle memory.

High School age players, with little prior instruction, may register for lessons to be held on Tuesdays from 2-3 p.m. The high school group will move quickly through all of the fundamental strokes using drills with hand-tossed balls and then move to ball machine drills. Cost for the HS level class is $70 ($55 BFR member) including six weekly lessons between June 11 and July 24. Space is limited to four in this group.
