Adult Coaching over recent years has been an area where we have made significant progress and improvement. A few years ago we set out to remove as many barriers to accessing our sport as possible. Rusty Rackets was born and since then we have enrolled hundreds of keen, active adults and reintroduced them to our wonderful sport.
Everyone in the photo above are relatively new members who have been playing 2 years or less.
Group Coaching - Adult
Our adult programme focuses heavily on creating a sociable and fun environment which in turn fosters an environment conducive to learning. We have three stages to our adult coaching programme:
1. Rusty Rackets - Grade 1 - 2
A free funded 6 week adult coaching programme which is sponsored by Miles and Barr runs from Margate Tennis Club every Tuesday evening at 7.30pm and Thursday evenings at 6.30pm. Our new sessions at Broadstairs Tennis Club is Wednesday evening at 6.30pm.
These tennis coaching courses ensure participants are introduced to the serve, forehand, backhand and volley as well as helped in understanding the rules associated with the sport. These are suitable for tennis for beginners as long as you fell you can connect with the ball.
Registration prior to the event is required as numbers are limited on this amazing and popular programme.
2. Adult Improver - Grade 2-3
The perfect session for anyone who has graduated from the Rusty Racket programme, is an active social club member or reasonably confident playing the game to a basic level. The sessions focus on all the key shots in tennis as well as providing a tactical overview which practically guarantees improvement in those areas.
Sessions are based at Margate Lawn Tennis Club on Tuesdays at 6.30pm and Saturday mornings at 11am. The sessions are £6 each which is payable over a 4 week course (£24).
