Unlike other racket sports, the game of tennis doesn't bat around innocent birdies for fun. Abandon the hard-knock life of a badminton enthusiast for a sport more humane: for $25, you get three group tennis classes plus racket rental (an $85 total value) at Las Vegas Hilton Tennis on Paradise Road. This Groupon can be used for either three adult classes or three kids' classes.

The Las Vegas Hilton tennis facility is staffed by professional, USPTA-certified tennis coaches and features six first-class courts. Hopeful tennis-ball bashers of all ages, skill levels, and backhanded brutalities can practice lobbing, drop shotting, and overhead smashing. Adult classes operate from 9 a.m.-10:30 a.m. daily. Every Monday through Wednesday (4 p.m.-5 p.m.), kids ages 4-12 practice volleys and learn how to return deviously whirling asteroid chunks to the galaxy from whence they came.

With over 10 years of experience, the coaches at the Las Vegas Hilton can break tennis down to its most basic elements to help beginners from getting discouraged, and can rocket intermediate players over the net of normalcy with honed racket skills and enhanced serves. They'll ensure that every guest receives top-quality instruction on the scenic courts surrounded by palm trees and friendly fences. Gentle encouragement and positive reinforcement will be served entirely free from the malicious spins and inconsiderate spittings that cause numerous fuzzy golden globoids to live in fear, despair, and an inability to count by anything other than fifteens.
