County Training

Berkshire Tennis County Training for Juniors

The Berkshire Tennis Performance Team supports junior tennis players aged 7 to 18 years old in our county.  The county training programme enables the best players in the county to train together on a monthly basis.  We are looking to create and develop a strong team spirit and identity across all players involved in training, who then go on to  represent the county in team competition at regional and national levels.  To be considered for selection, players will need to be regularly competing in local LTA tournaments.

There are 3 training centres in Berkshire - Cox Green (Maidenhead),  Reading University TennisPark and Bradfield Tennis Centre.  Players are selected and invited to attend county training  Performance team. 

What is the purpose of this programme:

  • To provide regular opportunities for the best players in the county to train and compete with one another
  • To accelerate the development of players aged 7-14 to create competition for places at Regional Training & the NAGP
  • To retain more young players in regular training and competition through to age 18

What will the programme be like:

  • There will be high intensity, fun squad training on monthly basis – the cost  of which will be subsidised by the LTA.
  • Players will get opportunities to represent their county as part of a county team.
  • County training will be delivered by local coaches who have specialised training and a track record of working with county performance players.
  • The programme will be supported by the LTA National Player Pathway Team.
