Here are some ideas for large groups and few courts. Other practice plans for teams are also found in this section below the large group ideas.
A. Large Groups (Stations) within a practice Here’s one option for large groups and few courts, setting up large group stations (8-10 players per station). The stations are set up both on and off courts. Some of our handouts, worksheets and ideas help organize and run the stations with minimal supervision. To set up this practice plan start by dividing your players into groups based on tennis ability. The number of groups is determined by the number of courts and the number of off court stations you set up. Players switch stations with their group and times for each station should run between 12-20 minutes.
