JUNIORS

 

Downswood Lawn Tennis Club has an active and vibrant junior section. 

Group coaching sessions are held on Saturday mornings,  Monday evenings and Friday evenings.  Sessions are arranged by age and ability. The cost is in addition to the Club membership fee.

The Club has a qualified Welfare Officer, Dr Amanda Free, who is responsible for implementing the Club's Safeguarding Policy.
