Intermediate Level
- Target Audience: Players typically grades 9-10 with "a bit more under their belt," often "club experience," or having "attended basic sessions before as a prerequisite or recommendation."
- Suitability for Daughter or Son : Not recommended at this time if under 11 years of age.
- Assumed Fundamentals: This level "assumes you've got a pretty solid handle on those fundamentals already." The focus "shifts...into like intermediate skill refinement gameplay strategy."
- Risk of Overwhelm: If her serve "isn't quite where she wants it to be yet," jumping into intermediate "might feel a bit overwhelming, like she's trying to keep up rather than focusing on her serve." This is akin to "trying to run before you've really mastered walking steadily."
- Frustration Risk: Placing her in a level where the overall skill assumed is too high when her goal is specific skill refinement could lead to "frustration," which "isn't great for learning or confidence."
