Adult Coaching
- As an LTA registered venue HTC has to demonstrate each year that it meets strict standards for management, coaching, facilities and regulatory procedures.
- We have two welfare officers and details of their roles and responsibilities can be found on the dedicated website safeguarding page - go to here
- Our coaching programme is comprehensive and varied to suit all members' requirements.
- If you are interested in joining part-way through the term (ie after the course has started) please contact Head Coach Blaise on 07490 960402 to check suitability before enrolling.
Adult Coached Squad Sessions
Adult coaching courses including beginners, returners, improvers, intermediates and advanced. They are scheduled for weekday evenings and some weekday mornings. Open to non-members and members at a discounted rate.
If you are unsure of what level would be most appropriate, please contact Head Coach Blaise on 07490 960402 to discuss options. We can arrange a taster session if you would like.
Club Social Sessions
Every day you will find a session that is pre-arranged for adult members to integrate with the wider club community. Weekday mornings and Sunday mornings for mixed/ladies/mens doubles play regularly feature full courts and WhatsApp groups are set up to co-ordinate full courts for seamless play.
For members who prefer to play in the evening we have Club Night on Friday evenings and for players who are keen to play in the club teams we have Match Practice sessions on Monday evenings.
Tennis for Seniors/Walking Tennis
Friday mornings are when we have a coached session for seniors which includes much of the LTA Walking Tennis framework. There is an opportunity to use either the HTC mini-courts or the full-size courts.
If you love tennis but at a gentler pace of play then Walking Tennis is for you. It is safe, fun and inclusive and a fantastic way to stay active!
It’s a game that’s open to anyone - whether you’re a lifelong tennis player, a complete beginner or just need a bit more time to get into the swing of things, you can give the game a go in a supportive setting.
You can play tennis at any age and Walking Tennis offers an easy way for older people to keep their body and mind active – while also enjoying the social side of being part of a tennis community.
From November through to February this group moves inside to the Village Hall (at no extra charge) to avoid weather disruption enabling continuity.
Monthly/ad hoc arranged roll-up tournaments
The HTC committee plan various tournaments throughout the season for adult members. Dates are planned soon after the start of the season and will be posted here on the website.
