1. Make it Fun • Incorporate games, challenges, and rewards. • Keep the energy high with positive reinforcement and excitement. 2. Shorten Lesson Segments • Limit drills to 5-10 minutes per activity to maintain attention. • Alternate between skills and games to keep things interesting. 3. Use Age-Appropriate Equipment • Smaller paddles and lighter balls if needed. • Lower the net or use temporary markers (like cones) for a shorter court. 4. Focus on Play Over Perfection • Encourage effort and creativity rather than perfect technique. • Allow them to experiment with different strokes and strategies. 5. Group Dynamics • Encourage teamwork if teaching in groups. • Use small groups or pairs to keep everyone active.
