Our Sports

Tennis, Golf, Athletics & Pickleball for Children

At TGA, our top priority is motivating and inspiring children to get involved (and stay involved) with sports. We believe sports change lives, and that’s why we are so passionate about introducing sports to kids at a young age. When provided encouragement and coaching in a supportive environment, kids are more likely to find a sport they love and stick with it.

As a youth sports franchise owner, you’ll offer a variety of sports to children in your community, including tennis, golf, and other team-based sports:

Tennis

TGA teaches and develops the fundamentals of tennis, including grip, forehand, backhand, volley, and serve. Our curriculum was designed in partnership with the United States Tennis Association (USTA) to develop the next generation of young athletes and ignite a passion for the sport.

Golf

TGA teaches and develops the fundamentals of golf, including grip, putting, chipping, and full swing. Our programs provide a fun and educational experience that introduces kids to this lifelong sport. We offer the ability to play year-round and provide all the necessary equipment.

Athletics

In addition to tennis and golf, TGA teaches children additional team-based sports and the opportunity to find a sport they love. These sports include the following:

  • Cheer

  • Flag football

  • Floor hockey

  • Lacrosse

  • Ultimate Frisbee®

  • Volleyball

PICKLEBALL

In partnership with Franklin, TGA has developed a program curriculum designed to develop young players’ skills and passion for America’s fastest growing sport. We use equipment and courts tailored to the size and ability of young players making it easier for kids to hold, swing, and connect with the ball. We teach & develop the fundamentals: Grip, forehand, backhand, volley, serve and dink.

WAYS TO PLAY PICKLEBALL
TGA offers ways to play year round. No matter when or how you choose to play with TGA, equipment is provided and all skill levels are welcomed.

ENRICHMENT CLASSES

We teach kids the game of pickleball through easy-to-understand concepts & interactive games that are fun and engaging. Using skill-based drills that can be done anywhere (indoors or outdoors, at school, or on the pickleball court), students develop the fundamentals, explore academic concepts through game play, and practice life skills — such as sportsmanship and respect.

CAMPS

TGA pickleball camps provide kids of all ages and abilities the opportunity to play and develop their love of the game. Our dedicated coaching staff and low camper-to-coach ratio allow for individual attention and instruction tailored to each participant’s skill level. In addition to honing their skills and improving their game, campers build friendships and life-long memories.

CLINICS

Junior players of all skill levels are invited to join our coach-led clinics to develop core fundamentals and mechanics. Taught in a hyper-focused format (1 to 3 hours in length), our clinics are designed to help players hone and master the fundamental skills of the game.

LEAGUES

Our pickleball leagues bring young players together to play against other teams while promoting social skills and life skills such as teamwork and sportsmanship. Leagues are a great next step for players who have developed the fundamentals of their game and want to apply those skills in a friendly, semi-competitive setting.

OTHER WAYS TO PLAY: Private Lessons • Themed Parties • Play Days • Family Events

Each sport helps develop well-rounded athletes and team players. These sports also allow TGA to provide year-round programming, which includes classes, camps, leagues, and more.

Our Programs

Every child has a different skill and experience level, which is why TGA offers a variety of programs to help develop their skills, including enrichment classes, camps, clinics, and more.

Every TGA program begins with a dynamic warm-up, a discussion about life lessons, and a review and introduction of new skills and techniques. Students then rotate through stations, learn the rules and history of the sport, and explore STEAM concepts through gameplay. Finally, students apply the lessons learned with group games and skill challenges.

  • ENRICHMENT CLASSES

    Parents enjoy the convenience of programs offered at schools, parks, community centers, and recreation centers while kids are introduced to sports, develop skills, learn from trained coaches, and build a passion for the game.

  • CAMPS

    Camps provide young players the opportunity to further improve skills, develop fundamentals, and improve their game in a non-competitive environment while having fun, building confidence, and making friends. We offer half-day camps as well as summer-long programs.

  • CLINICS

    Clinics provide an opportunity for young players to receive individual instruction and additional practice time with their peers to hone skills and master the fundamentals.

  • LEAGUES & TOURNAMENTS

    Our team-based recreational leagues bring sport, community, and families together. Designed for developing athletes to practice and play in a semi-competitive setting while developing skills, building camaraderie, and promoting teamwork.
