A new coaching and membership scheme for all age groups has been launched at Southwell Tennis Club. Run by regular coach Jason Kilkie, the aim is to increase participation, improve the playing skills and have some fun!

Jason says “I'm proud to be the coach at Southwell Lawn Tennis Club. We have a fantastic group of members and are fortunate to offer coaching in a wonderful setting in the heart of Nottinghamshire. We provide group tennis coaching year-round in school term time as well as camps, competitions & club events. 1-1 and private group coaching is also available. Whether you're looking to improve your fitness, meet new friends, develop your skills, or play tennis competitively, we want to help you. I look forward to seeing you on court!”

Coaching takes place on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and we hope to introduce Sunday mornings soon.

Group coaching is organised by age group:

• Mini Red: Suitable for children aged 5-8 years

• Mini Orange / Green: Suitable for children aged 8-11 years

• Teen tennis: Suitable for children aged 11-18 years

• Adult coaching: Beginners, Intermediate & Advanced. Enquire to find the best session for you.

The cost varies depending on whether a bronze, silver or gold coaching package is taken out but typically work out at between £7.00 and £4.50 per session.

The price for an annual junior coaching membership is £25 and you can join through the memberships page on the club website. Becoming a member grants juniors access to free court bookings with a parent or other junior members, entry into club competitions, teams, and events. What's more, if you sign up to a silver package or above as a junior player, a junior membership is included for free!
