Learn, develop, play!

The main aim of our coaching programme is to help players of all ages experience the full fun and excitement of tennis through:

• learning the basics
• developing their skills
• playing the sport

We believe that learning tennis skills without playing the sport is like learning a new language but never using it!

Our programme is run by Head Coach, Yvonne Blyth, supported by a team of qualified coaches, assistants and tennis leaders.

Coaching sessions and other events are available for three groups of adult players:

• Beginners - adults keen to learn the basics with other beginners in a friendly, fun environment; our first Adult Beginner course of 2024 is online now and we’re planning to run courses regularly throughout the year
• Improvers - players who have learned the basics and are now aiming to take their game to the next level by learning more advanced techniques and tactics
• Cardio Trainers - Cardio Tennis is a high-energy fitness activity that combines the best features of tennis with tough cardiovascular exercise, delivering the ultimate, calorie-burning, aerobic workout. It’s suitable for people of all ages and abilities.

Pickleball

Pickleball is a paddle sport that combines elements of tennis, badminton, and ping-pong using a paddle and plastic ball with holes. It's a fantastic social activity, suitable for players of all ages.  It can also be a challenging, fast-paced, and competitive sport when people become more experienced at playing.  We’ll be running regular Pickleball sessions throughout the year.

The first of our two five-week Summer term blocks runs from Monday 15th April until Saturday 18th May:

Our coaches are also running sessions for all groups at Dunfermline Tennis Club.  If you can't find a Brucehaven session at a time that suits you, please check at Dunfermline Adult Coaching.
