Coaching

Codicote Tennis Club's Head Coach is Richard Barfoot, supplied by Over and In.  

Richard represented Essex at Junior level,  and won a 4 year collegiate scholarship in Texas and Florida where he achieved the accolade of All State Doubles Champion.  Richard's coaching experience and skills have been honed at a number of tennis clubs in Essex, East London, Hampstead and Radlett.   We are delighted he has now joined Codicote Tennis Club as our Head Coach.  If you are interested in coaching please contact Richard Barfoot on 07541 490608 or via email at [email protected] 

We would recommend the use of disinfectant wipes to wipe down the gate handle, net winder etc. before and after use. A bottle of hand sanitiser would also be useful. Clean your hands before you touch the tennis balls, on and off during the match and after you have finished. We know that this may seem like common sense, but safety and your health are the most important things.
