Coaching

Our coaching programme is led by our coach Andy Gray, who was recently awarded Avon Coach of the year and was a National finalist in the category.

Andy is a LTA level 3 qualified tennis coach who has been coaching for 8 years. He started by volunteering at his local tennis club in Backwell at the age of 16, and has progressed by gaining his coaching, first aid and safeguarding qualifications. Andy has recently graduated from Exeter University where he studied Sport and Exercise Science. By working at Saltford tennis club he is looking to improve his coaching experience, whilst offering his knowledge of tennis and sport science to its members.

Our coaching programme covers Monday to Saturday during school term time and we try to provide something for everyone- all ages and all abilities.
We also have a fitness session which is open to everyone and you don't need to be really fit or an experienced player to enjoy the session.
