 "Kids
in Court" attracts 18 Die-Hards
Lac du Bonnet
held its first ever tennis lessons geared for kids
ages 7 -12. Kelly Deveau and crew taught these sessions
in May & June of 2005 . Young kids hit hundreds
of balls using a series of activity stations. The
group's skill level improved so quickly that "live
ball" play was introduced far earlier than expected.
Whether using a practice hit or tennis trainer device,
the kids enjoyed the broken racquet throwing station
the best!
The community
and parents were extremely supportive of this initiative.
Tantalum Mining Corporation donated substantial
funds. This enabled us to purchase brand new racquets
for each kid at the awards ceremony. Not to be outdone,
the local Co-op station gave free slushies to all
players and coaches. Thanks to Claude Deveau and
Brent Pemberton for their enthusiasm and patience.
Contact Kelly
Deveau at 345-6751 for more details. Future plans
include free tennis sessions for teens and a half-day
week long tennis camp for next summer.
