It’s so important that children enjoy their tennis experience from a young age or on their first step into the club. We place a big emphasis on this and believe the more fun young players have, the more they will grow to love this ‘game for life.’
We have a very friendly club atmosphere, with our fully qualified coaching team/staff on hand to ensure that the children are well looked after, whilst at the club.
There are opportunities for club sessions, friendly free play and all juniors are able to book courts for their enjoyment. We have junior priority times to ensure there is court availability on offer, at suitable times.
Our licensed LTA Tennis Coaches have a wealth of experience and our club coaching programme offers sessions for all ages and standards. All coaches also offer individual tennis lessons and are able to accommodate all types of players, from beginner to advanced.
We offer pay and play coaching sessions, where children can drop in on a week by week basis. This a great way to ‘try it out’, or for those who like to come on less frequently.
We follow the LTA Mini Tennis Structure, whereby players are introduced to tennis in the early years, following the Red, Orange and Green method. This is a progressive system, whereby smaller courts and rackets, along with lower soft compression balls are used, to ensure children are exposed to the game at the correct level.
We offer a full junior coaching programme. This is where players are placed, by invitation, into smaller squads working with similar ages and standards. This is a well-structured progressive set up, that allows players to be introduced to the Technical, Tactical, Physical and Mental aspects of the game. We take a games-based approach, which allows news skills to be applied to a match environment and hence captures the children’s enthusiasm, desire and willingness to compete and enjoy the game.
The Club have an outstanding reputation for producing quality County, Regional and National standard performance players. These players are often nurtured from a very young age, starting at the club and progressing onto a full performance coaching programme.
This requires a combination of: the player’s talent, parent’s commitment and the expertise of the club coaching team and outstanding club facilities. All of these are key to support the level of success a player is able to achieve.
We offer Performance coaching squads which incorporate fitness, drills and match play. Many of our players have won numerous National events and have gone onto top British Universities and gained American Tennis Scholarships.
