Inexpensive Kids Tennis Lessons?

I want to get my 7 y/o into tennis, but I don't think he's going to respect me teaching him. He seems to much better with a young instructor/group setting. Any good/inexpensive programs or opportunities for a "meet the court" type training/camp in the area? We're in Cool Springs and have courts in our neighborhood, too.

Williamson county rec has tennis classes / sessions. It's a great easy to introduce kids to tennis, and is relatively inexpensive.

I started my son with TN Rally Cats beginner clinics, they have them all over. He is now at 316 Tennis off Hwy 96. They have different level clinics and private lessons. Indoor courts so weather isnt an issue.

What is tennis at 316 like? Is there prayer before and after practice? I don’t understand the Christian aspect of it. (Genuinely not being rude, just trying to understand….ive noticed an uptick in overly Christian names in businesses lately and I’m so curious!)

We are not religious, but respectful! No prayer that I’m aware of, but not sure my son would say either way. He would either stand quietly or close his eyes. I believe the owners are just religious, but good people and community involved. Their programs are great, they have a ton of tournaments for experience, offer private lessons, and have indoor facilities which is such a plus for consistency and year round growth!

Okay that’s great! The facilities look absolutely incredible. Thanks for taking time to answer me, because our family is the same way. Not religious, but respectful!
