We are pleased to be able to provide professional coaching at our club.
Our resident coaching team is run by Nigel Willard Tennis and both Nigel and other members of his team offer regular group and private sessions to our members and non members. Please note that ONLY coaches authorised by the NPTC committee are permitted on our courts. Please go to our coaches website Nigel Willard tennis where you will find detials of all the classes and courses on offer.
Everyone is very welcome to come and try a class for free.
All non members are very welcome to come and join the coaching programme. Non members pay a 20% uplift for their first term of coaching and after that, it is a requirement that everyone takes a membership of the club.
Children are the life blood of tennis......its a game for life after all and we follow the LTA youth coaching scheme.
LTA Youth is the tennis programme designed to give you skills for life. Everyone aged 4-18 is welcome; any shape, size, ability – it doesn’t matter. We just want to see you pick up a racket.
Our introductory Tennis for Kids offer will get you into the game, teaching you all the basics, whilst our Yellow Stage course will have you playing on a full size court in no time. And there’s plenty of other stages in between.
Never held a racket? No problem, our specially trained LTA Youth coaches will adapt to each individual, to help bring out their best in a safe, secure environment. All kids need to bring is their creative energy, because the programme is designed to grow as they do. Smaller courts and softer balls develop into the real deal as they pick up all the skills and know-how they need.
It will take your youngster to the next level; you’ll see it in their confidence, their skills and even their concentration at school. Not to mention keeping them fit and active. Add some healthy competition to teach them about good sportsmanship (because we all have bad days) and you’ve got a set of skills for life.
The adult sessions run at three different levels: beginner, intermediate and advanced so we can accommodate you no matter what standard you play at.
Individual lessons
We are able to deliver individual tennis lessons at all of our sites. These lessons will be taught in a safe and responsible way to adults of all abilities. Whether it be a new shot, tighten up on technique or learn a new tactic we are here to help you.
