Week of December 14th - 20th, 2020

Hello everyone,

We will provide you with an update tomorrow on whether any programs or camps will be able to run over the holiday break. In the meantime, please find the coaches weekly updates below.

Thank you,


Craig Mercer
Tennis Director and Assistant General Manager
Toronto Tennis City

FUTURES / CHAMPIONS TEAMS
Head Coach Adam Dykes
It is great to see that we are maintaining a good turnout for the zoom classes and that the kids are able to get some consistent activity during these times.  Once again we split up our workouts to be more cardiovascular based and one with more strength/core/balance.  The kids look to be getting used to the workout and the technical component of the drills are improving.  

For this weeks mental training we will be discussing a video based on the importance of sports and its benefits for our overall health and in creating a growth mindset.



PROVINCIAL / NATIONAL U12 PROVINCIAL INTERNATIONAL
TEAMS
Head Coach Sam Jonas
The turnout for our fitness and mental training sessions continues to be great. This week we had over 30 players every day! It is great to have opportunity to coach and be active with so many of the kids at least a few times per week.

This week we took a bit of a different approach to our mental training and will be discussing a video centred around the benefits both physical and mental playing sports has for kids. I thought it would be really beneficial for the players to have a better understanding of how beneficial and healthy tennis is for them and why it can be such a positive activity for everyone.
