ACEing Autism, a national non-profit organization, recently made its debut in Charlottesville at the Boar’s Head Resort, offering weekly tennis lessons for children on the autism spectrum from ages 5 to 18. Sessions meet for 2 hours once a week for five weeks. For groups larger than 10, those 2 hour sessions are split into 2 hour-long sessions, divided by age group. Tailored for kids who want to take a swing at a new sport, the program provides an opportunity for children to learn tennis in an environment that also prioritizes the development of social skills.
