COVID - 19 At present we cannot provide our usual coaching programme due to the Government and LTA restrictions. We hope that we can start a restricted programme very soon. When our coaching team assess that it is safe to do so they will start advertising what they can make available. In the meantime adults and older juniors may be able to book individual lessons but this is at the discretion of the coach. Please get in touch with John Kimani for further information on this. jellyjohntennis@yahoo.co.uk mobile 07951 584669 .
Our previous coaching programme is set out below and we hope to get back to it soon.
Mini Tennis is taught from 3yrs to 10yrs old using an LTA approved programme of coaching, with the emphasis on enjoyment. Starting with low compression balls and small courts to ensure basic skills and techniques can be learned, children gradually progress to the full size court to prepare them for Junior Tennis.
TENNIS 4 KIDS is a great value way of getting children 4 - 11yrs playing tennis in the school holidays. £25 (+£4.99 p&p) gets you a racquet, 6 hour long coaching sessions with a qualified coach, a personalised T shirt and a set of balls. Just click on the link at the bottom of this page to find out more and to book a course.
Junior Tennis is played from 10 yrs old and although many children start with Mini Tennis our coaching team happily teach absolute beginners of any age. Many of our junior players are skilled enough to compete in our senior teams.
Adult Tennis coaching for beginners is very popular but many of our team players find sessions with our coaches to be beneficial as well. There are also "rusty raquet" sessions aimed at the many people who are returning to the game after a break.
We offer pay and play sessions or regular after school squads. Further details of your options can be found on our mini, junior or adult coaching pages.
Disability tennis is also offered.
