Throughout the week, students will be encouraged to further develop their strokes and strategies via group or private lessons, enhance team and individual skill building drills, improve with match play, practice target training, and strengthen with fitness and conditioning. All students are carefully grouped and all ages and levels are welcome. Groups are based on age and ability.
