Junior Coaching

We have a fantastic coaching programme at Baslow Tennis Club which caters for all ages and abilities from the age of 3 upwards. For our younger players, we run sessions using the LTA mini tennis programme which provides the perfect introduction to the sport for children aged between 3 and 10 years. At each stage the game is tailored to fit different age groups with different sized courts and balls. Children then progress through the full ball coaching programme which takes them through to the adult game. Full details about which sessions are suitable for different age groups can be found here

Please note that all players must be members of the club to participate in coaching sessions. Please click here to join.

For any session that is cancelled due to bad weather we will always deduct the cost of that session from the next block or issue a refund if that’s more appropriate.

Please note that due to limitations on numbers there will be no drop in sessions and all groups must be booked and paid for in advance.
