Youth Tennis Lessons

FAQ

Q: What is the cost of youth tennis lessons?
A: $16 / hour / person

Q: Why has the price gone up so much?
A: Lifetime Fitness is hosting youth tennis lessons on site at Heart of the Hills.  All pricing and youth lesson options are determined by Lifetime Fitness. Heart of the Hills is simply providing the sign up and payment portal.

Q: How do I know which lesson is right for my child?
A: Bring them out to the court during the pre-season team practices and meet the coaches!  They will be happy to talk to you and your child to figure it out.  If pre-season is over, then just come by during another team practice or lesson.

Q: How do I know if lessons are cancelled due to weather or some other reason?
A: Join Remind!  Also check the HHSC Tennis Page which has a Google calendar and Remind feed.

Q: What happens if it rains or lessons are cancelled for some other reason?
A: At least one makeup per session will be offered indoors at Lifetime Fitness (200 W Avon Rd). The time will be shared by your coach.

Q: What happens if more than one class is cancelled in a session?
A: Unfortunately there is no guarantee that makeups will be held if more than one class is cancelled.  We will do our best, but indoor court time is limited.

Q: What if I need to miss a class?  Can I attend another as a makeup?
A: This is at the discretion of the Lifetime coaches and the class sizes.   Please speak to your coach.

Q: What if I change my mind about lessons and want a refund?
A: Lessons are fully refundable up to 2 days before the class starts (minus the CC processing fee).  After that, you will receive a partial refund based on the number of classes used minus any cancellation fees.

Q: What are the class sizes?
A: The minimum class size is 3, and the maximum class size is 18. This is to guarantee a good coach / child ratio as well as enough court space.

Q: If a class is full, will more class times be offered?
A: We only need 3 people on the wait list for Lifetime to offer additional class times.
