GROUPS
Groups of 4 to 8 will
normally consist of a package of pre-paid lessons. The cost is a set amount (see LESSON RATES) per player, and there will be as many
lessons as there are players in the group (e.g. if there are 7 players, we will
have 7 lessons). Please bring a
check to the first lesson. You are not eligible for partial refunds if you miss
any of the lessons in the series.
You may find a sub if you cannot attend a group lesson, and it is your
responsibility to retrieve reimbursement from your sub, if so desired.

forward to helping you improve and have fun on the court.
