At Sawbridgeworth Tennis & Pickleball Club, coaching is at the heart of everything we do. Whether you’re a complete beginner, a developing junior, or an experienced adult player looking to sharpen your game, our coaching programme offers a pathway for everyone. Led by an experienced LTA‑qualified coach, our sessions blend high‑quality instruction with a friendly, inclusive atmosphere that makes learning enjoyable and rewarding.

Junior Coaching Programme
Our junior coaching pathway supports players from their very first steps on court through to confident, match‑ready performers. Sessions are grouped by age and ability to ensure every child learns at the right pace.
What juniors can expect
•     Fun, high‑energy sessions that build confidence and enjoyment
•     Age‑appropriate coaching using Red, Orange, Green and Yellow ball stages
•     Development of key skills: coordination, movement, technique, and tactical awareness
•     A welcoming environment where children make friends and feel part of the club
•     Clear progression routes into matchplay, squads, and holiday camps
Junior coaching runs throughout the week, with options for all ages and abilities. All sessions can be booked online.

Adult Coaching Programme

Our adult coaching pathway supports players of all levels — from complete beginners to experienced club players. Each session is designed to build confidence, improve technique, and help you enjoy your time on court. With a friendly, inclusive atmosphere and clear progression routes, adults can develop at their own pace while feeling part of the club community.

What adults can expect

• Supportive, enjoyable sessions tailored to your level
• A blend of technical coaching, movement, and tactical development
• Options for beginners, improvers, returners, and regular players
• A welcoming environment that encourages learning and social connection
• Clear routes into social play, matchplay, and further coaching

Individual Lessons
For players seeking personalised attention, individual coaching offers the fastest route to improvement. Sessions are tailored to your goals—whether that’s refining technique, improving consistency, building tactical understanding, or preparing for competition.
Why choose individual lessons
•     One‑to‑one focus for accelerated progress
•     Tailored drills and feedback specific to your game
•     Flexible scheduling to suit your availability
•     Suitable for juniors and adults of all levels
Individual lessons can be arranged directly with the coach.

How to Get Started
All group coaching sessions can be booked online, and weekly sessions can also be paid for on the day. If you’re interested in individual lessons or want help choosing the right session, simply get in touch and we’ll guide you.
