Weekly Coaching
At Bohemian Tennis Club we have a weekly coaching programme designed to suit all ages and abilities.
The coaching team at Bohemians consists of:
- Head Coach - Ben Adams Level 3
- Coach - Cameron Bentham Level 3
- Coach- Matthew Mernin Level 2
- Coaching Assistant - Gail Mernin Level 1
Coaches are fully licensed/registered with the LTA and hold full CRB/DBS clearance and are first aid trained.
The team is ably assisted by our group of trained Tennis Leaders - junior members who volunteer their time every week to help on our mini tennis lessons.
Junior Lesson Programme Overview
We run group lessons outdoors for children from age of 5 to 16 from February through to November and follow the LTA Mini Tennis Programme for the younger players. Mini tennis is played on smaller courts with smaller sized racquets, nets and slower, lower bouncing balls. It introduces children to all the basic techniques of the game and includes work on balance, co-ordination, agility, movement and the basic racquet and ball skills. There are 3 levels which players progress through:
- Mini tennis red (5-8 year olds)
- Mini tennis orange (8-9 year olds)
- Mini tennis green (10 years+)
Progressing from these we run at least 3 Full-ball sessions for those juniors capable of playing full court rallies with the proper tennis ball, and who would like to progress to match play and maybe be considered for our tennis league teams.
Adult Coaching
Adult's coaching sessions run outdoors from February to November encompassing all ability levels.
Although members get priority booking for group lessons, they are all open and accessible to non-members, subject to availability. Please email Ben Adams at Bohemianstenniscoaching@hotmail.com or call 07866 891868 for more details.
