GREEN
GREEN is the fourth stage of the Roadmap and is further broken down into a series of sub-stages (GREEN10, GREEN15 and GREEN20). We continue the emphasis on technique and tactics and also include work on mental resilience which is key to individual sports like tennis.
Now using low compression GREEN balls but on a full size court, kids will grow their game by fine tuning and refining the techniques they’ve learned so far. Kids should now be in a position to act more independently on court, able to make good tactical decisions and be resilient in terms of their mental toughness. We will continue to encourage kids to compete in order to enhance their skills further. Once again, a series of "Task Cards" will be used to highlight skills needed at each sub stage.
Once the task card has been completed, the player will earn a sticker for their roadmap and an achievement certificate.
A copy of the Task Card that your child is currently working on should be in their Rally Awards Roadmap Folder but links to all the Task Cards in this stage are below:
Note - only once all GREEN sub stages are completed will a player be ready to move on to the YELLOW stage.
