We give our juniors the chance to explore and discover key character qualities demonstrated by tennis players such as resilience, perseverance, passion and respect.
Our tennis coaching for kids provides young children with a progressive and structured tennis programme, with skills, development, fun, and fitness at the heart of everything. It aligns with the LTA youth programme, starting off on mini courts, with mini nets and sponge balls, children will move through the levels as their game and skills develop.
Our coaching programme is divided into 4 age groups: Blue (age 3-6), Red (age 5-9), Orange (age 8-10), Green (age 9-11). There are 4 levels in each colour - 1 is a beginner at that level and 4 is advanced.
The colours represent different sized courts that allow children to develop and learn relevant to their age, giving them more of a chance to enjoy longer rallies, and develop good habits and instincts. The kids will use smaller racquets and softer balls that fit their size, strength and athleticism.
For older juniors follow the same format, with 4 different levels across 4 age categories (U11, U12, U14 and U18). Sessions take place on a full size court, with a combination of drills to work on specific techniques along with competitive matchplay.
