Meet the 6 Miss-Hits characters

Billie the Ball Dog
We're the Miss-Hits!
Meet the Miss-Hits characters: an all-girl group who love tennis and think that being sporty is as cool as it is healthy. They’re here to encourage girls aged 5 – 8 to play tennis in our fun and lively starter programme.
Every session is based around a Miss-Hits character, with each teaching their own signature tennis shot, along with tips, tricks, games and dance routines – all in a fun and friendly environment.
The girls will make friends, gain new skills, build their confidence, be girly and most of all, have lots of fun. And whether they are a sporting natural, or have never held a racket, the session plans are suitable for all levels.
