Club Coaching
The coaching team is led by our Head Coach, Tom Carlton, who is a fully qualified LTA Level 5 coach and a regular playing member at the club. He is supported by Daniel Shearing (Level 4) and Sam Carlon (Level 3). Charlotte Nudd and Louise Willoughby, both Level 2 coaches, make up the coaching team along with a fantastic group of Tennis Leaders and Level 1 coaching assistants who help at sessions.
The coaching programme caters for juniors and adults, offering individual and group sessions tailored to age and ability. Children between three and ten years old follow the LTA Mini Tennis stages which use smaller courts, nets and rackets and lower bouncing balls to deliver the perfect introduction to the sport.There are four stages of Mini Tennis; Tots, Red, Orange and Green, each with their own court size and type of ball. This tailored approach enables players to develop vital skills and techniques at an early age.
