What can you expect?

At the Orange stage, children learn the rules & scoring to play the game from serve & return. Coaches will support children to grow their motor skills (orientation, hand-eye coordination, running & moving) to play in a dynamic environment. At the Orange stage children will increase proficiency, problem-solving skills & learn sportsmanship.

Notes from the coach

Children adapt to using a higher bouncing, smaller ball over a bigger court. Children spend lots of time rallying over a higher net, and getting used to recovering to a new court position and hitting with bigger swings over a higher net. Lots of work in Mini Orange on judging the flight of the ball and getting our bodies in good positions to hit from. Children practice first to 7 point tie-breaks.
