The Eras Tournament - Annual 2025

Do Better - Adult Training Program - Fall II 2025

Welcome to the Do Better adult training program.

We are partnering with 692 and their coaches to make sure that you, as a player, get to be the best you can. This is a brand-new training session with brand-new lessons! We are now offering 3 Training sessions on Tuesday, and 3 training sessions on Wednesday. These will be held at The Strand with two of the best coaches from the DFW area. We will have specific drills to accelerate your game, no matter where your starting point is. Training will include a structured group activity with instruction, practice, and evaluation. Coaches will show you the skill to work on, show you how to practice it, and watch you to make sure that you are getting it and making progress. This is about accountability and being better.

We have a few options for registration.

September 29th - November 5th

6-week program for a one-time fee of $65.00 per session

Price includes 50 minutes of group training with a coach.

There will be THREE training sessions per night:

Tuesdays at Intermediate (B/BB) 7:20pm, Fundamentals (B) at 8:10pm, and Advanced (High BB/AA) 9:00pm.

Wednesdays at Advanced (High BB/AA) 7:20pm, Fundamentals (B) at 8:10pm, and Intermediate (B/BB) 8:10pm.  

You may also drop-ins on any session for $20 provided that there is availability in the time slot that you would like to attend. Please reach out to us if you have any questions on drop-in's or waitlist!!

If you are unsure of which session to join, here are a couple tips:

- Join beginner if... never received any formal training before, unsure of which group to sign up for/new to the sport!

- Join intermediate if... in a league elsewhere, some experience playing OR some experience training, have an idea of what you want the ball to do but doesn't always happen!

- Join advanced if... a bit of experience playing, training, etc., already been taught the basics, can already tell the ball where to go, want to know more about how to make your game more aggressive, specific and organized for higher level play!

Please reach out if you have any questions and we look forward to seeing you in the sand!!
