About
EXCEL coaches are highly trained and experienced, capable of adjusting lessons and program emphases to meet the specific needs of each individual player. Their expertise, advanced teaching skills, and extensive coaching knowledge contribute to the success of the players.
Players in the EXCEL Yellow program are grouped together in appropriate sessions based on factors such as playing level, age, and stage of development. The training sessions primarily involve "live ball" play, where players engage in dynamic and realistic game situations. Advanced drills are incorporated when necessary and suitable to enhance skill development. SPORTIME's signature tactical games challenge students to formulate, plan, and execute winning tactics and strategies. Coaches focus on teaching the "X's and O's" of constructing points while providing technical corrections to support the execution of tactical plans.
The goal of the EXCEL program is not solely to develop players with aesthetically pleasing strokes, but rather to cultivate players who possess the ability to compete and win matches. Coaches prioritize teaching students how to compete effectively, ensuring they understand the strategies and tactics required to succeed on the court.
SPORTIME's expert coaches are dedicated to preparing EXCEL Yellow players for participation in USTA-sanctioned tournaments and UTR events. The program emphasizes tournament readiness and provides players with junior walk-on privileges, granting them convenient access to court time. EXCEL Yellow players also enjoy additional benefits and opportunities within the SPORTIME community.
Through the comprehensive training, tailored coaching, and focus on competition within the EXCEL program, players are prepared to compete at higher levels and achieve their tennis goals.
